- What is COVID-19 telling us about the region’s progress on SDG 3 and efforts to ensure the health and
well-being of 430+ million people in the Arab world?
 
- How have health systems in the Arab world responded to COVID-19 and how should they move forward to ensure healthier lives and more resilient health care systems in the region?
How can structural transformation in the region’s approach to development articulated in the Arab Sustainable Development Report 2020 guide the way out of COVID-19?
