The RSA and its Fellows have been bringing people together to unlock ideas and innovation in the areas of society that must thrive so we can live well - to identify how the world could, and should, change after the pandemic. We’re inviting you to share ideas of how this thinking can apply in Essex.
We hope you can join us all day, but all sessions are optional. For planning purposes, you will be asked to indicate which sessions you’d like to attend when you book (sessions are in bold).
