Cities and infectious disease crisis: COVID-19 lessons from four continents
Join us as we reflect on nearly five years since the WHO declared COVID-19 a pandemic. Experts from four continents will share insights into tackling public health and infectious disease challenges while addressing how urban infrastructure, housing, and governance have evolved during this global emergency.
Discover the findings from four USF-funded projects that bridge research and practice to address pandemic-driven urban issues in the Global North and South. Engage with panellists as they connect experiences across diverse urban contexts and explore innovative paths for urban transformation in a post-crisis world.

"Being approved for the USF International Fellowship proved to be a pivotal moment in my career, offering a much-needed boost of stability and opportunity following the completion of my PhD. It was crucial to have nine months to concentrate on publishing and presenting my work in high-impact journals, during which time I was also able to foster interlocution and consolidate a network of exchange with international urban researchers. The Fellowship has created many positive consequences and opportunities for the development of my career and academic skills, and I am confident that this mark on my professional journey will be very valuable in the long term."

Dr Deborah Fromm, International Fellowship
