Faith, Public Policy and Gender Nexus

Submitted by siteadmin on Tue, 06/09/2020 - 15:41

Speakers in the webinar will reflect on the role of faith-based organizations in shaping the post COVID-19 world, the kinds of innovations that will be used in designing new policies, both national and global, with respect to gender-based analysis of COVID-19.

The webinar will also include discussions on the variations and similarities between national responses to COVID-19, making sense of global efforts to provide public goods that serve humanity in the midst of fierce private sector interest, deploying tools and instruments that will gain more popularity in a post-COVID world. 

Participants will be informed about peacebuilding and conflict transformation processes in a post-COVID-19 world. Conflict and gender sensitive approaches are vital to inform policy makers about humanitarian interventions.
