PEGNet Workshops

The Corona pandemic puts enormous pressure on economies and societies world-wide. This is particularly true for low and middle income countries, where many people are engaged in low-wage informal employment.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has imposed economic costs and burdens on Africa that have compromised the implementation of development strategies and policies, including international development cooperation. This virtual workshop organized by PEGNet, GIZ and GIGA will take stock of the evidence on socio-economic impacts of COVID-19 in Africa. We will discuss the immediate and longer-term implications for development cooperation partnerships and its role for recovery and future resilience.
