6、 we live in a closely interdependent world that brings opportunities but also carries dangers. It has, just as importantly, shed light on a whole series of pre-existing conditions from heightened inequality, to unsustainable debt and rampant environmental destruction that were left unaddressed after

7、 the Global Financial Crisis. The world at the end of 2019 was, in truth, a good deal more fragile than many were willing to acknowledge. As a result, Covid-19 obliges us to think carefully about what makes for healthy and resilient communities, at the global level as much as the local level and tak

With many countries unprepared to respond to a health pandemic, lockdown seemed to be the only plausible way to protect lives and preserve health systems. Doing so t

Data for the first two quarters of this year show output contracted more sharply than in 2008-2009, and in some cases registering the steepest drop on record. Estimates for the year point to a generalized global recession matchi

Unemployment will be on an upward trend, more and more companies will be facing the threat of bankruptcy; supply chains will be fragile; con

11、fidence will be shaken; demand will be weak. Debt levels across the world, in both the public and private sectors, will have risen significantly from the historically high levels registered before the crisis. In this condition, the wrong policy steps and ignoring the experience of the last decade co

These threats are greatest in the developing countries where the ability to respond to the crisis, on both the health and economic fronts, has been hampered by years of austerity combined with massive d

To date, the international community has not matched its expression of concern with commensurate support and action. Multilateralism was already under stress before the crisis, bu

This years Trade and Development Report argues that the global economic crisis caused by Covid-19 throws up a stark choice: continue misguided policy choices

Neither path is preordained. Building a better world is a matter of conviction and collective
