Covid-19, Conflict, and Governance Evidence Summary No.27
Abstract
This fortnightly Covid-19, Conflict, and Governance Evidence Summary aims to signpost the UK
Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and other UK government
departments to the latest evidence and opinions on Covid-19 (C19), to inform and support their
responses.
This summary features resources on: how C19 is catalysing global civil society, C19’s impact on
borderlands and cross-border conflicts, and new data on the socioeconomic impacts of C19.
Many of the core C19 themes continue to be covered this week, including: the disproportionate
impact of C19 responses in fragile and conflict affected contexts on women and girls; inadequate
financing of humanitarian protection work; and widespread corruption issues related to C19-relief
systems.
The summary uses two main sections – (1) literature: – this includes policy papers, academic
articles, and long-form articles that go deeper than the typical blog; and (2) blogs & news articles.
See the end of this email for details on the method taken for this rapid summary. It is the result of
one day of work, and is thus indicative but not comprehensive of all issues or publications.
