The magnitude and breadth of COVID-19 impacts across the world are colossal. We already know that nations will experience economic downturns, with the IMF predicting a contraction in global growth in 2020.
Over the last few months, we have seen an endless number of projections, simulations and predictions about the evolution of COVID-19. Virologists, scientists, economists have tried to use models to infer the implications of the pandemic. In the meantime, policy-makers are busy making quick decisions, actions and fund allocations.
These two online talks on bridging research and policy responses to COVID-19 will bring together academics and policy-makers to synthetize responses on the most relevant topics for the Rome-based food and agriculture Agencies: the future of the value chain, food security, women, youth and vulnerable groups in the post-coronavirus era.
