Institute Of Welsh Affairs

Our panel look back at the 2021 Senedd election and assess what the outcome means for the future of Wales. We look at the implications of the Covid-19 pandemic on the results, the impact of young people being given the right to vote for the first time and whether the electoral landscape of Wales has shifted in the wake of the results. Our panel discusses the election campaigns and share their opinions of the outcomes, including what drove voters to make the decisions they did. We also discuss the implications of the result for policy-makers in Wales over the next Senedd term, examining where the newly-elected Welsh Parliament might lead Wales over the next few years. The event is chaired by Auriol Miller, Director of the IWA, who will be joined by: Laura McAllister, Professor of Public Policy, Cardiff University Rocio Cifuentes, CEO, Ethnic Minorities and Youth Support Team Wales (EYST) Andy Regan, Policy & External Affairs Manager, IWA This is an hour long panel discussion on Zoom and attendee
