"Easing the restrictions: how not to get it wrong!"

An invitation to an exclusive discussion among scientists.

Date: Tuesday 13 April 2021 at 7 p.m.

We invite you to the last part of our trilogy about the pandemic. Together we will try to understand what the new "normal" will look like. You will learn how pandemics accelerate social change, what the latest recommendations are and whether there is anyone we can take inspiration from.

We will look at which measures are useful and will remain in place in the future (value for money), and what to avoid. And also at how each of us can contribute to coming through the whole situation successfully.

Taking part in the debate:
