Prof Katy Shaw, Director of the AHRC Creative Communities programme, recently gave a talk to policymakers, regional planners, economic development experts, academics, and business and community leaders at the Festival of Flourishing Regions.
Prof Shaw discussed ‘why maximum devolution will deliver city and regional potential’, reflecting on the recent government white paper on devolution and potential for delivering deep devolution of powers to places.
