Following the publication of our first COVID-19 response working document on 27 March the GSG engaged in conversations with representatives from its National Advisory Boards (NABs), partner organizations and other key stakeholders, including DFIs, international NGOs and policymakers around the world.
This paper aims to present the evolution in the thinking and design of adequate impact driven responses to the crisis. In doing so, we aim to build on the initial identification of initiatives presented in our previous note and at the same time reinforce our action-driven approach towards tackling the consequences of the unprecedented crisis caused by the pandemic.
