From 2018 to 2020, we worked closely with other development, humanitarian and peace partners to help societies tackle immediate development emergencies, prevent new problems from escalating and build resilience to navigate the challenges yet to come. The report also assesses the longer-term impacts on trade, economic growth and health indicators and proposes actionable solutions. UNDP believes in building resilience for today and tomorrow. Changes in mortality, economic growth and international financial flows in Angola, Cabo Verde, Chad, DRC, Ethiopia, Kenya, Mali, Mauritius, Nigeria and South Africa are analysed in the document. This document articulates UNESCO’s vision and strategic priorities in education over that period. The study highlights the multifaceted economic and social consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic across Africa, including on human development indicators, economic interdependence, and growth and resilience patterns. To respond effectively in this context, UNESCO needs a robust strategy that can guide and focus its priorities in education from 2014 to 2021, corresponding to the eight-year medium-term strategy of the Organization. This shows UNDP is both a people and planet. The poverty cluster (goals 1, 8, 10) amounted to 32 of UNDPs expenditure in 2016 governance (goal 16) 23 and the planet cluster (13, 14, 15) 15.
UNDP Africa’s new report: “ Analysing long-term socio-economic impacts of COVID-19 across diverse African contexts” examines the effect COVID-19 will have on macro-economic development in 10 African countries by 20. The recent mapping of UNDS functions and capacities highlighted UNDPs current focus on three broad clusters of goals: poverty, governance and planet. Addressing COVID-19 in Africa and designing appropriate remedial strategies requires a thorough understanding of Africa’s diverse contexts and an appreciation of the role of regional integration in defining solutions. There is no single Africa COVID-19 story. Only 10 countries account for over 80% of all cases, island nations suffer peculiar impacts, rural-urban differentiation is evident, socioeconomic implications reveal gender biases, and trade patterns matter. This article implements a discourse analysis of the UN Development Programmes (UNDP) Human Development Reports (HDR) and exposes their internal contradictions. Africa’s COVID-19 story is one of nuances. The COVID-19 pandemic has claimed over 100,000 African lives and nearly 4 million cases have been recorded so far.
