Flattening the COVID-19 Curve in Developing Countries
COVID-19 is ravaging advanced economies such as Italy, France, Spain, and the United States. The situation in these advanced economies is likely to be much more benign than what developing countries are facing, not only in terms of the disease burden, but also in terms of the economic devastation they will face. In a new op-ed for Project Syndicate, Growth Lab Faculty Director Ricardo Hausmann proposes four measures that would help the Global South fight the pandemic and mitigate its economic fallout.
Public Leadership Through Crisis
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.
