Central Asia and Caucasus Seminar
Event Format

In the race against time to develop a vaccine against COVID-19, forward-looking policy makers must begin exploring next steps such as access to the vaccine, financing and distribution, and start working on their countries’ preparedness for the challenge.
 
Two renowned experts, a scholar and a practitioner, will provide an overview of the current state of vaccine development. They will discuss mechanisms for Central and West Asian countries to access the vaccine, as well as items that should be on the “to-do” lists of policy-makers in these countries.
