It is certain that humanity will not forget in a hurry the devastating impact of the coronavirus pandemic or Covid-19 on its social and economic life.
Today, the pandemic remains the most potent threat to the continued existence of humanity in modern times.
Apart from putting the lives of tens of millions of people at risk and actually being responsible for the deaths of millions of others, the Covid-19 pandemic has threatened the livelihoods of tens of millions more.
A joint statement by ILO, FAO, IFAD and WHO, in October 2020 said, “Tens of millions of people are at risk of falling into extreme poverty, while the number of undernourished people, currently estimated at nearly 690 million, could increase by up to 132 million by the end of the year.”
