FUF (The Swedish Development Forum) and The Nordic Africa Institute host a breakfast seminar on how the Corona pandemic affect African countries.

Covid-19 has reached almost every country in Africa. Most governments have chosen to impose restrictions on mobility, to reduce serious consequences. However, closing down a country can have hazardous social and economic effects. Join FUF’s Lennart Wohlgemuth and NAI senior researcher Victor Adetula in a live discussion about Covid-19 and Africa. Listeners can ask questions via chat during the talk, or send questions in advance to matilda.andren@fuf.se.
