Older adults have not only greater susceptibility to contracting COVID-19; they also are at higher risk of social isolation and its adverse health outcomes. During COVID-19, the quarantine and distancing procedures can exacerbate social isolation. As local communities seek to bolster their residents’ well-being during COVID-19, older adults cannot be overlooked. This essay shares brief coverage of the issue of social isolation among older adults to set up a discussion of the response of a lifelong learning provider in Maricopa County, Arizona, USA. This essay uses the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Arizona State University as an exemplary case in addressing older adults needs, specifically community and learning needs, during the COVID-19 pandemic. The essay concludes with questions for future research and practice.","PeriodicalId":208905,"journal":{"name":"Local Development & Society","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114274109","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We apply for municipal governments in Ohio based on detailed locational information from the InfoGroup Historical Business Data. While every metropolitan area, as well as nonmetropolitan area, has winning and losing cities, smaller places dependent on apparel or automobile outlets, restaurants, and tourism can suffer as much as a half of sales tax.

It influences how society uses space and focuses our perspective on the importance of critical infrastructures, public services, and community networks. Which “new normals” regarding the changes in use of space by communities might emerge during this crisis? Individual and collective action emerge as a coping mechanism and a sign of collective hope. The current crisis makes the digitized more visible, while we exclude others who are outside cyberspace. Trade-offs between health and economy and new ways of organizing society are discussed publicly. What are the consequences for spatial planning and how does this open up new research avenues? This commentary aims to stimulate further discussions by putting forward six facets of the “new normal” that might impact upon post-Corona communities from a spatial planning perspective.","PeriodicalId":208905,"journal":{"name":"Local Development & Society","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129823914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Much of the locally based support comes from non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that serve a particular community. In this paper, we present a case study of an educational and nutritional NGO functioning in a semi-urban town in Guatemala. We discuss how Education for the Children and the school it manages, The School of Hope, have addressed food insecurity, educational challenges, and lack of social support during the pandemic. We suggest that such responses should include three main aspects. First, the response must be overwhelmingly local. Second, local cultural values, as well as political and economic constraints, must be centralized in the response plan. Third, and possibly of greatest importance, local responses to crises must be adaptable. We believe that this case study presents ideas and suggestions that various organizations can consider and adapt to their own localized responses.","PeriodicalId":208905,"journal":{"name":"Local Development & Society","volume":"282 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133014682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The manufacturing sector has provided good jobs and benefits, and it has a stronger multiplier effect on regional economies than other industries. Post-industrial theory suggests that there is a natural transition from agriculture to manufacturing, and ultimately, to services. Rural areas, especially those that are small and not adjacent to a metropolitan area, lack the population density and size to support many service sector jobs. Deindustrialization has led to the rise of “rural ghettos.” These places face many of the same problems as urban ghettos, such as high levels of underemployment, selective out-migration, social isolation, drug use, and lack of services.","PeriodicalId":208905,"journal":{"name":"Local Development & Society","volume":"33 6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129546040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
