NLC Schedules New COVID-19 Webinar

Preparing for a Post-COVID World

The webinar, "Preparing for the Day After: How Micromobility Can Get Communities Moving Post-COVID," will attempt to present solutions possible as we as a nation prepare ourselves for life after the COVID-19 threat has subsided somewhat.

The National League of Cities will present the webinar, "Preparing for the Day After: How Micromobility Can Get Communities Moving Post-COVID." The 60-minute presentation will be on April 21 at 10 a.m. PDT and will cover ways government leaders, community organizations, the micromobility industry and our cities can begin to prepare for a post-COVID world. We plan to bring together policymakers, academics, advocates, transportation practitioners, and community leaders for a timely conversation.
