Project

Urban health systems, shocks and resilience: what can we learn from COVID-19?

What can we learn from COVID-19? Was a research project proposal submitted to the FWO but wasn't granted. The aim of the project was to contribute to a better understanding of the links between governance and resilience of urban health systems in superdiverse cities. The general objective was to explore and compare the factors underlying resilience of urban health systems in two selected cities, using COVID-19 as a tracer condition for a shock. We designed six sub-studies, each tackling one specific objective. This jPPP-project is a pilot project to prepare for the 'Urban health systems, shocks and resilience: what can we learn from COVID-19?' project. This is also part of the 'living lab' that the Primary Care and Public Health spearhead is developing with the City of Antwerp.
