UN SOCIO-ECONOMIC RESPONSE TO COVID 19

The overall objective of the UN Socio-Economic Response to COVID-19 is to identify the
COVID-19 impact on people who are at risk of being left behind and their specific needs and
rights for recovery measures and how the UN will respond. The study highlights the groups
that are most vulnerable due to COVID-19 and the main challenges they face and overall
trends and patterns that impact their lives. The assessment is guided by the principles of the
UN Secretary General’s Response on Socioeconomic Impact of COVID-19 and the UN
Framework for the immediate socio-economic response to COVID-19, including tackling the
immediate emergency, focusing the socio-economic response and recovering better.
UNIDO, as one of the UN agencies, also contributed to the narrative performance and included
associated inputs and emphasis on the emerging responses in accordance with above
mentioned survey findings and suggestions.
