To the 6th CEnSE workshop, we invite researchers to submit papers that investigate novel aspects of urban and regional development, or traditional aspects in novel ways. We aim to bring together researchers who work on these issues to discuss papers and exchange ideas. We welcome submissions related (but not limited) to the following topics:

- The effect of COVID-19 on regional and urban development.
- Resilience of regions and cities (after crises and exogenous shocks).
- Urban-rural differences in labor market outcomes, income, knowledge creation and learning.
- Demographic change and its impact on regional growth.
- Regional differences in health and well-being aspects.
- Institutional differences.
- Regional differences in entrepreneurship and innovation.
You are welcome to suggest additional topics that you think would be suitable for this workshop. We welcome both theoretical and empirical contributions.
