There is no doubt about it. The after-effects of the COVID-19 pandemic will be with us for many years into the future. Healthcare. Economics. Social Interaction. Sports. Politics. Education. Just about everything will feel the effects for the rest of most of our natural lives.

In this, the first of a series looking at various scenarios for a post-pandemic world, we look at urban and social issues. Dr. Cindy Frewen is well qualified to discuss both of these areas. She is a fellow member of the Association of Professional Futurists–she served as its board chair for many years. She is an architect, has a Ph. D. in communication, and teaches social change in the University of Houston’s graduate foresight program. She also was a columnist for the Kansas City Star for many years.
