Abstract

As the previous chapters attest, the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted Australian cities in a multitude of ways and these impacts have had an array of different outcomes. As we have lived through the pandemic, we have witnessed rapid shifts in employment locations and in the patterns and scale of internal and international migration. We have seen the public health emergency reflected in and reinforcing a range of existing inequalities across communities and changing demands for the way space is used within cities. For urban planners, whose jobs demand they anticipate trends and help shape the future of cities, the rapid changes brought about by the health and economic responses to the pandemic raised significant challenges.
