Global Parliamentary Workshop

date: 5.04.2021 | time: 8:30-10:30 EST | location: Online

The Global Parliamentary Workshop took place virtually ahead of the Spring Meetings of the World Bank & IMF, from the 5-6 April 2021, with the overarching theme “From the Pandemic to the Paris Agreement: How to avoid a great divergence.”

The COVID-19 pandemic has created social and economic hardship across the world. Despite extraordinary policy measures, the effects of the virus have amplified pre-existing inequalities, disproportionately affecting the young, the poor, and women. The risk of an uneven recovery is high unless we use targeted, sector-specific measures, while taking action on climate and managing debt. In this context, our aim was to create a space to hear from parliaments about their role in the immediate and long-term recovery efforts, including policy measures that work and others which are to be implemented.

The workshop was an occasion for parliamentarians to share experiences and best practices with senior management and experts from the World Bank Group and IMF about how they are addressing virus containment and the global reset to long-term sustainability and debt management.
