lots of take away from @IGAUnit #IGAction2019 - local people and local places have to be at the centre of what inclusive growth is, the way ideas are communicated matters, we need to value local knowledge, there are lots of good things happening that we can learn from + build on

Great to hear passion of @AndyBurnhamGM @greatermcr for devolution: 1. Place over party 2. Make change with people 3. Names over numbers ..and his view that #inclusivegrowth must be locally led & pitched as good for business & driver of growth 🙌 @IGAUnit #IGAction2019

Now we are hearing a surprise paper from John Goddard @UPP_Foundation on Civic University Commission and how higher education needs to think Local. #IGAction2019 @IGAUnit sad to miss your talk @EricRoyalLybeck but flying the civic flag in your name! #humanities #socialscience

Local authority boundaries restrict strategic action on inequality 👉 collaboration in @greatermcr between LAs & housing & health providers is helping 👉 but further flexibility between devolved budgets is needed says @ruthlupton @IGAUnit @OfficialUoM #IGAction2019

Organisation of local government in the main not set up to facilitate place-based strategy- mainly about delivery in specific areas- but this is changing, esp. in context of city region devolution & Greater Manchester presents interesting case -> @ruthlupton #IGAction2019

Replying to @IGAUnit
@IGAUnit conference input from Prof Chris Benner talks about experience from US: looking long term really helped to deliver inclusive growth. Collective/coordinated response came from people getting used to working together.

Great keynote speeches at #IGAction2019 today. Although unemployment and income inequalities are decreasing, the broken #redistibution system is contributing to catastrophic levels of #ChildPoverty says @TorstenBell. #InclusiveGrowth @IGAUnit @jrf_uk @resfoundation
