The C-19 Global South Observatory aims to monitor the status, impacts and implications of the crisis in countries of the Global South through succinct and analytical Country Briefs, which provide a thorough overview of the situation in each country, informed by DPA and ADE‘s in-house and international experts, as well as by their network of local experts. Each Country Brief attempts to provide relevant and necessary contextual factors to characterize the current status of the pandemic, information that will be crucial to anticipate future needs. Particularly, we aim to understand the scope of the government’s current response and capacity, actions that have been put in place to mitigate the spread and effect of the pandemic, and to identify sources of vulnerability and risk. 

The observatory looks to strengthen local  awareness, information, capacities and connections to help countries and communities deal with COVID-19.

Briefs are updated once per week, and more will be added soon.
