A webinar titled, The Impact of Covid-19 on the Global and Indonesian Economies was held on the 31st March 2020. The online webinar was participated by 70 participants from beneficiary organisations such as BAPPENAS, the Ministry of Trade, the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs, the Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank of Indonesia.
The webinar served as a useful platform to discuss the impact of Covid-19 on the global and Indonesian economies. The analysis of the Covid-19 impact was done utilising the economic models that are being developed for BAPPENAS in collaboration with Oxford Economics, as part of the ARISE+ Indonesia technical assistance. This webinar is a fist of a series of webinars that will discuss aspects of economic policy relevant to BAPPENAS. The webinar was delivered in collaboration with Oxford Economics. The webinar served as a new method to overcome the challenges brought by the Covid19 pandemic and the cooperation received from the beneficiaries was very encouraging.
