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.

Promoting Sustainable Growth in Peru's Amazon Region
Located in the heart of the Amazon rainforest, Loreto is Perú’s largest state and also among the least densely populated. The region’s geography and the remoteness of its capital pose economic, social, and environmental challenges. As part of an 8-month project, Growth Lab researchers generated policy recommendations related to Loreto’s productive ecosystem, its binding constraints to growth, and the structural transformation of its economy.
