How should the government align levelling up and net zero?

Levelling up and net zero are the government’s twin flagship agendas. But how do they align? Where and how can policies complement each other? And what is required to make that happen? While the levelling up white paper acknowledged and explored some of the links between the two agendas, the government has yet to set out a coherent plan for how they will be brought together. On our panel to discuss these issues were: Steve Beechey, Group Public Sector Director at Wates Roz Bulleid, Deputy Policy Director at Green Alliance Rt Hon Philip Dunne MP, Chair of the Environmental Audit Committee Julia Goldsworthy, former Director of Strategy at the West Midlands Combined Authority. The event was chaired by Tom Sasse, Associate Director at the Institute for Government. #IfGlevellingup We would like to thank Wates for kindly supporting this event.
