In this pamphlet, experts on Local, Regional and Central Government discuss the challenge of connecting the various layers of government together such that local, regional and national governance is informed by those groups and organisations that are closest to, trusted by, and best understand the strengths and the needs of individual communities. Alongside these essays, the publication features a series of case studies focussing on how the structures of regional and local government interact with initiatives at the community and neighbourhood level.
