Abstract
The Regional Centre for Urban and Environmental Studies (RCUES) of All India Institute of Local Self Government (AIILSG), established by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) undertakes urban policy research, technical advisory services, and strengthening work capabilities of officials and elected representatives. RCUES as part of its annual work plan, decided to undertake a research study on �Rethinking Public Spaces & Infrastructure Post COVID 19� to support local governments with policy and design guidelines that will allow them to rethink design and management of these spaces to ensure public health and safety. Urban Local Governments in India have been at the forefront of COVID management, putting in place immediate measures like sanitation, social distancing protocols, and timed lock-downs to control the spread of pandemic. Governments can further use these COVID responses to pivot to long term, systemic changes in public realm design and management. This study captures the current state of public spaces in the Indian context, looks at areas of improvements, and identifies good practices by local bodies and international cities and encapsulates the findings as policy and design direction for local governments
