    Abstract

    The Covid-19 pandemic has triggered the most severe recession in nearly a century and is causing enormous damage to people’s health, jobs and well-being. The pandemic has spread to multiple countries and has severely affected many regions including East, South and Southeast Asia.

    Against the evolving impact of Covid-19, some countries in the region have been able to manage the spread of the pandemic. These include Vietnam, South Korea, and Singapore. It is therefore useful to exchange best practices and lessons learned as the global community copes with consequences of this on-going crisis.

    In this regard, the Centre for Southeast Asian Studies (CSEAS), Indonesia supported by the Non-Traditional Security (NTS)-Asia Consortium, and the Centre for Non-Traditional Security, S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS), Nanyang Technological University (NTU) Singapore, are organising a webinar themed, “Covid-19 and Economic Crisis: Mitigating Impact and Sustaining Development in Asia.”

    The webinar aims to:

    • Elicit views from members of NTS-Asia Consortium in three sub-regions of Asia (East, Southeast, and South Asia) on the economic fallout of the pandemic and ways to sustain development.
    • Examine how Covid-19 affects vulnerable communities in the three sub-regions.
    • Understand how countries in Asia can help each other in managing the economic impact of Covid-19.
