How can we rebuild our local economies and transform the way we live, to create sustainable development and well-being for people, the planet, and future generations? 4theRegion is a cross-sector network that brings together people, businesses, large organisations, community groups and educational institutions - who care about the future of South West Wales, and the wellbeing of our communities, and want to make a difference. The 4theRegion podcast is a way to stay connected with the huge range of different conversations and events that we host with people and organisations across the region. Our goal is to strengthen communication and collaboration across our region, so that everyone feels more positive, more empowered and better able to contribute to a happier, healthier and more resilient future. Our mantra is that the future of our region is in our hands - as the people, businesses and organisations of South West Wales. As you’ll hear, again and again, through the events and conversations that we host, there is so much happening, so many exciting projects and initiatives, so much important work, and so many reasons to feel positive and inspired. We think South West Wales is surely the BEST place to live and work in the whole of the UK - if not the world! - and we hope that by tuning into this podcast you will find nuggets of information and a general sense of empowerment, so that together we can co-create a happier, healthier future and a thriving economy, for Swansea, Carmarthenshire, Pembrokeshire and Neath Port Talbot.

Dawn speaks to Jeremy Miles MS, Counsel General for Wales and Brexit Minister and Member of the Senedd for Neath, about actions that the Welsh government have been taking during lockdown in order to reconstruct the Welsh economy.
We face huge, unprecedented challenges in the near future and that journey should not rely heavily on a 'back to normal' approach. As the government works through the course of recovery, the approach will be committed towards social, economic and environmental justice under the Well-Being of Future Generations Act.
In May, Jeremy issued an invitation to people in Wales to share their thoughts on how the government should support future post-Covid recovery and reconstruction in Wales. To date, there have been over 1000 submissions sent to the dedicated mailbox. Submissions remain open and are encouraged to continue. Analysing and drawing on the ideas received is, and will be, a key part of recovery over the next few weeks and months.
