About this event

03 December 2020 from 20:00 until 21:00

This virtual panel on lessons from the pandemic, seen from the perspective of Europe and the U.S., will explore what the COVID-19 pandemic has revealed in a time of crisis:

  • What are the latest trends in the coronavirus outbreak in Europe and the US?
  • What can we learn from varied responses and from countries and communities that have managed to mitigate the health and economic impact of the virus?
  • What has contributed to a nationalistic response rather than an inclusive approach that brings together nations in pursuit of global solutions?
  • How does the rest of the world view the European and US responses?
