CID COVID-19 Response & Resource Page
The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting the lives of people around the world, but those in developing countries are likely to suffer the most in the face of this global crisis. At the Center for International Development (CID@Harvard), we see this as a call to action. We are responding quickly in the following ways to implement solutions: we are collecting funding information; we are connecting researchers, foundations, and policymakers to channel our resources; and we are sharing the most up-to-date work of our experts to ensure it is reaching those who need it most.
Inside CID
Faculty and fellows are conducting research projects in 32 countries
CID Director Asim I. Khwaja coauthors a multidisciplinary proposal with a team of experts, experienced researchers and practitioners to respond to COVID-19. Elements of the proposal are being tested in various places – including Pakistan – where several members of the team have been actively supporting the state’s response efforts at national and sub-national levels.Â
Thanks to generous funding from The Review of Economics and Statistics, the Harvard Center for International Development (CID) and the Harvard Kennedy School Malcolm Wiener Center for Social Policy are pleased to announce a new funding opportunity for Harvard undergraduate and Master’s students pursuing original research on issues regarding inequality, both domestically and abroad. Projects addressing the impact of COVID-19 are particularly encouraged.
Governments are most important in times of public crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Individuals, no matter how talented or self-reliant, look to their governments for help to empower or deploy the powers and potentialities of the collective. But many people tasked with leading public organizations in times of crises struggle to know if and how to rise to the occasion. In a series of blog posts, Building State Capability Faculty Director Matt Andrews shares ideas for leaders questioning how they can help and what kind of leadership is required in crises.
