Impacts and consequences of the coronavirus pandemic: OECD’s data, analysis, and recommendations

Описание: What are the impacts and consequences of the coronavirus pandemic on our lives and our societies – and what are some of the solutions we can find to boost our healthcare systems, secure our businesses, maintain our jobs and education, and stabilise financial markets and economies?

The OECD is compiling data, analysis and recommendations on a range of topics to address the emerging health, economic and societal crisis, facilitate co-ordination, and contribute to the necessary global action when confronting this enormous collective challenge. The OECD’s response embraces a long-term strategy, reflecting on how we move from addressing the health crisis to assessing the consequences and impact and to building a successful recovery.

Our COVID-19 digital hub brings together data and policy responses spanning a large range of topics, from health to education and taxes, providing guidance on the short-term measures needed in affected sectors and a specific focus on the vulnerable sectors of society and the economy. It also includes a Country Policy Tracker, allowing users to explore what countries are doing to contain the spread of the coronavirus and how countries help people, small businesses and the economy to weather the crisis and beyond. Beyond immediate responses, the Hub aims to provide analysis on the longer-term consequences and impacts, paving the way to recovery with co-ordinated policy responses across countries.

This webinar will be an opportunity to engage with two key OECD experts:
‒ Monika Queisser, Senior Counsellor to the Director of Employment, Labour and Social Affairs Directorate and the Head of Social Policy Division will address the social dimension of the OECD’s response
‒ Aida Caldera Sanchez, Economic Counsellor to the Chief Economist will share the OECD’s latest policy advice and recommendations on the impact on the global economy
