The Covid-19 pandemic and the containment measures adopted to check the spread of the disease, have caused an unprecedented economic crisis in India as well as the rest of the world. Further, India is experiencing a massive humanitarian crisis, exemplified by the scale of reverse migration that is in progress. There is an urgent need for the government to implement policies designed to mitigate the economic damage, and alleviate the suffering of the most vulnerable. In this webinar (12 June 2020) – moderated by Prof. Parikshit Ghosh, Member of the I4I Editorial Board – Dr Pronab Sen reviews the current status, and deliberates on what needs to be done, and where we are likely to be in the future. The webinar is based on Dr Sen’s recent five-part series on I4I.
