Within the next five years, 60% of the world’s population will be living in urban areas. Urban living comes with large-scale economic advantages and society benefits from economies of scale. But, COVID-19 is challenging urban living. We have introduced the term ‘social distancing’ and some policy analysts have even argued for the de-densification of cities.
Join us for a discussion where our panellists will analyse this perceived conflict.

Me. Liza Coetzee, 'n Ph.D.-student aan die Departement Fisika van die Universiteit van die Vrystaat (UV), het tydens die onlangse Suid-Afrikaanse Krygkunskampioenskappe wat in Nelspruit, Mpumalanga plaasgevind het vier goue en een silwer trofeë verower. Sy is ook aangewys as die beste senior damestudent by die byeenkoms. Me. Coetzee is die afrigter van die White Tigers Combat Tang Soo Do-klub in Bloemfontein. Die span het 36 trofeë op die nasionale kampioenskappe verower. Agt van haar studente is gekies vir die Nasionale en Presidentsontwikkelingspanne wat Suid-Afrika se titel as huidige wêreldkampioen later vanjaar in Nederland gaan verdedig. Hier is me. Coetzee saam met Grand Master Jeong Seong Kim van Suid-Korea.
