Close collaborations with government’s responding to the pandemic have produced a range of monetary and fiscal policy recommendations for longer term recovery and future resilience. From interest rate policies to quantitative easing, to progressive taxation and trade policy, shock proof and inclusive fiscal policies are needed as we face multiple crisis.
Join CORE researchers who will present their findings and open up a discussion on the implications for managing multiple crises and building resilience of the most vulnerable.
Participants will be invited to consider what this means for future research agendas.
