皇冠体育app Build Back Better Agenda and COVID-19
This review focuses on multilateral and regional organisations to get a view of how BBB is framed and approached in relation to COVID-19
Abstract
皇冠体育app phrase 鈥榖uild back better鈥� (BBB) emerged from natural disaster recovery following the 2004 SE Asia Tsunami and the 2005 Pakistan earthquake. This rapid review focuses on a small number of multilateral and regional organisations to get a view of how BBB is being framed and approached in relation to COVID-19. United Nations (UN) reports are using the term 鈥榬ecovering better鈥�. Discussions within the UN High-level Advisory Board on Economic and Social Affairs on 鈥榬ecovering better鈥� are centred around challenges related to economic uncertainties; digitalisation; inclusive economic structures; sustainable financing for sustainable (and owned) development; bottom-up production structures for sustainable development; and equality and democracy. 皇冠体育app OECD suggests that BBB should identify policy options that have positive outcomes for employment creation and better outcomes for long-term sustainability and resilience. 皇冠体育app current UK government recovery strategy for the UK prioritises health first, protection and restoration of livelihoods second, and thirdly the social effects of social distancing
This report was prepared for the UK Government鈥檚 Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and its partners in support of pro-poor programmes
