Think 20
The primary aim of this parallel session is to inform core leaders within the G20 of the importance of redefining our knowledge regarding inequality, human capital, and well-being issues in order to fully capture how the pandemic has affected our lives. This dialogue will highlight research and policy work on inequality, human capital, and well-being presented by researchers and scientists based in the G20 nations.
This collaboration event between T20 Task Force 5 in collaboration with the Faculty of Economics and Business Universitas Indonesia and the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI) aims to bring together experts and academics in the field of multidimensional poverty, inequality and wellbeing, to find solutions to the challenges faced by G20 nations due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The integration of technology in education has been catalyzed by school closures due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
