Levelling Up - Regional Inequalities and Social Fabric Programmes
Description
In this episode we speak to Shivani H. Menon. Shivani is a Senior Researcher on Onward’s Levelling Up and Social Fabric programmes. She is co-author of the report ‘Levelling Up Locally’, and has worked on topics like philanthropic giving, devolution, vocational education, and economic strategy.
Shivani gives a detailed insight into the ‘Levelling Up Locally’ report and highlights how low cost, fast action policies can be implemented by local leaders with the resources that are already available, despite the financial hardships faced by local councils.
From protecting local community assets, high streets, and town centres to providing support to the most disadvantaged members of the community, Shivani discusses how a range of different policies can be applied to enable local councils to level up.
