NextBillion - An Initiative of the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan

As the COVID-19 pandemic persists around the globe, refugees are faced with dual hardships of disease and displacement. What are the economic impacts on refugees during and after lockdowns in urban contexts? How can subsidized housing assistance promote integration goals? What specific challenges do Syrian refugees in Jordan face, and how has the pandemic further exacerbated these issues? What are the specific challenges faced by adolescents?

Please join Innovations for Poverty Action (IPA), the Center for Effective Global Action (CEGA), and the Joint Data Center on Forced Displacement (JDC) for the second webinar in a mini-series focused on the impacts of COVID-19 on forcibly displaced people in the Global South, and efforts by NGOs and governments to support them.

Please note that the webinar will be recorded and the recording will be posted online, but only panelists/speakers will be visible and identifiable during the webinar, not attendees who register using this form (attendees’ names and faces will be hidden during the webinar).

Time: 11:00 AM ET
