In light of the humanitarian crisis due to the spread of COVID-19, the Latin American chapter of the Network of Southern Think Tanks (NeST LATAM) virtually gathered professionals from technical, political and academic institutions involved in the pandemic control in Argentina, Brazil and Mexico. The webinar aimed to exchange urgent lessons from the current crisis in terms of mechanism, actors and processes that facilitate or jeopardize international cooperation in the control of epidemics/pandemics in Latin America.
This webinar was supported by the United Nations Office for South-South Cooperation (UNOSSC), through the South-South Global Thinkers initiative.
