Learning Exchange - Impact of COVID-19 on South Asia's Most Vulnerable Children
Unmasking the Impact of COVID-19 on Asia's Most Vulnerable Children
World Vision conducted a Recovery Assessment, in nine countries across Asia: Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nepal, Philippines, and Sri Lanka to better understand the socio-economic impact of COVID-19 on the lives of vulnerable children, in Asia, and better inform its response journey ahead. The key findings of the Rapid Recovery Assessment will enable World Vision programmes to better meet the needs of our most important stakeholder, the most vulnerable children, and amplify their voices, in a broader regional and global arena.
