More people’s lives and livelihoods around the world continue to be affected by the COVID-19 pandemic with the disruption of business at borders and the impact felt across global supply chains.

The STDF global partnership continues to provide vital assistance for developing countries to trade safely, investing in solutions that protect people’s livelihoods and support future economic recovery.

STDF report ‘Managing the risk of COVID-19’

Since COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic, the STDF has put in place a range of actions, in close cooperation with the global partnership, to mitigate and manage the risk across STDF's work.

STDF’s report provides an overview of the situation and outlines the types of risks faced and mitigation measures taken across STDF's global platform, knowledge work and project portfolio.

By showing how the situation is being managed across STDF work, and within projects, the report supports sharing experiences and learning on COVID-19 risk management across STDF stakeholders. Get in touch on any queries at STDFSecretariat@wto.org.
