Panel Debate I: COVID-19: Global Cooperation
As COVID-19 has spread around the world, it has exposed weaknesses in international cooperation arrangements put in place to respond to health emergencies of this kind, as well as their economic and social repercussions. This panel will address questions such as: are existing institutions and governance arrangements well equipped to steer the international response? How could international cooperation be improved? How can trade flows and international value chains be protected from collapsing? How can global growth, as well as financial stability be preserved?
