For a green and inclusive recovery after COVID-19, broad and deep social support is required. Bringing small enterprises, low income groups and marginalised communities into the investment and policy making process is not merely a ‘nice to have’, it is key in the transition to green and inclusive economies.
This IIED Debates event will hear how citizen-led dialogues can generate more effective policy and accelerate the green recovery.
