Multilateral diplomacy in times of COVID-19
 
Dear Colleagues,

We invite you to join us on Tuesday, 7th April, at 11:00 UTC (13:00 CEST) for our next WebDebate: Multilateral diplomacy in times of COVID-19.

In the WebDebate we will: 
unpack the role of the UN system and the WHO in particular 
branch out to consider the role of multilateral diplomacy more broadly. Is multilateralism failing us, and if so why? 
look ahead – will we see elements of a new UN or a new multilateral system emerge after the crisis? 
 Register
