How can we learn from other local communities creating Resilience in the music social/structural disruption/reconstruction under COVID-19?

- New combinations of business and community models – bridges beyond streaming
- “After” – rebuilding trust, conflicts for space/time/funds, challenges of funding in a community rebuilding mode
