What type of economy and society do we need to create in our different communities to achieve economic, social, cultural and environmental sustainability in Llandovery?

Join us at this seminar presenting The Llandovery Deep Place Study, when Dr Mark Lang and Professor Terry Marsden will discuss the findings from the fourth Deep Place study, undertaken in collaboration with the Sustainable Places Research Institute.

Deep Place is a holistic approach to sustainable place-making. It is grounded in an empirical concern with how to achieve more economically, socially, environmentally and culturally sustainable places and communities.

The approach continues to be strongly influenced by, and indeed seeks to influence in return, theories of social exclusion, transition theory, the Total Place public service reform agenda, and foundation economics.

This report seeks to identify local initiatives, resources, and the passion and commitment of local people and businesses in Llandovery. These can, it argues, form the basis of a whole-place, place-based approach, which is so critical to making our all of our communities more equitable, resilient and sustainable for current and future generations.

PLACE research seminars are free to attend and open to all. Please share this invitation with other colleagues who may also be interested in attending.
