The health pandemic has highlighted the importance of a quality health sector in making the world a better and more resilient place.
Key messages
- Developing countries face the deepest recession in a generation. Complying with lockdown guidance in developing countries will be very challenging, given the level of informality and the state of poverty and health capacities.
- The G20 and UN need to address shortcomings to enable inclusive, collective and coherent global leadership.
- Urgent actions required to address the health and socio-economic costs include global actions plans on aid and finance, trade and food security, and free flows of knowledge and mobility of health workers.
