A group of children in a open area, observing physical distancing, follows the guidance of a volunteer on how to wash their hands.

Excerpt:

The COVID-19 pandemic is more than a health crisis; it is an economic crisis, a humanitarian crisis, a security crisis, and a human rights crisis. This crisis has highlighted severe fragilities and inequalities within and among nations. Coming out of this crisis will require a whole-of-society, whole-of-government and whole-of-the-world approach driven by compassion and solidarity.

The UN Secretary-General has launched the UN Comprehensive Response to COVID-19 to save lives, protect societies, recover better.

The website include various policy briefs being issued by UN Secretary General, by theme, population group and by region.
