About the seminar

What does the future of Local Government service delivery look like post pandemic?

This seminar will examine this question and more, exploring the changing nature of Local Government in present times, hearing from a panel of experts, examining the skills and resources needed to face the challenges ahead with peer-to–peer learning through expertly led Innovation Hubs.

Open to all interested in the future of local government services, this is an ideal opportunity to meet and engage with like-minded colleagues exploring service specific issues and strategies for local authorities.

The seminar will be framed around three streams:

• Commercialisation and Income Generation
• Waste Collection and Street Cleansing
• Renewables, Energy Efficiency, and Climate Change

The day will also feature a range of Innovation Hubs to explore and share good practise among delegates across both strategic and operational matters.

When booking, either indicate which of the three streams you would like to participate in or make your selection across the three streams, indicating which option from each session you would like to attend.
