SIR HOWARD BERNSTEIN is widely recognised as one of the chief
architects of Manchester’s resurgence over the last four decades.
Join us as we hear from Sir Howard on how New Zealand can learn from
Manchester’s experience.
Despite growth and housing pressures across our main centres, NEW
ZEALAND continues to trail the delivery of URBAN REGENERATION IN
COMPARISON WITH COUNTRIES LIKE THE UK. With the government’s
decision to set up a National Housing and URBAN DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY,
URBAN REGENERATION IS FIRMLY ON THE AGENDA.
This is an important time to learn from the innovative applications,
public sector intervention and successful outcomes applied to tackle
these challenging issues to create marked social and economic
improvements.
