COVID, Tech and Local Government: Making an Impact at the City-Level

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused an array of policy and service challenges for state and municipal governments across the country. Into this crisis, PIT-UN members have worked with their local governments to provide essential consulting services, demonstrating the role technology can play to improve and enable responses to COVID-19. In this webinar, hear from a panel of PIT practitioners working with city/county governments in Pittsburgh, Austin, Los Angeles and New York to make our communities more resilient and residents better informed.

Join Heinz College Distinguished Career Professor Rayid Ghani for a panel discussion on this topic. Other panelists include Andrea Christelle, PhD, from the University of Texas at Austin and Professor James Featherstone, Executive Director at Homeland Security Advisory Council and Adjunct Faculty, Pepperdine's School of Public Policy

This conversation will be moderated by Pete Peterson, the Braun Family Dean of Pepperdine's School of Public Policy, and Senior Fellow of the school's Davenport Institute for Public Engagement.
