The symposium is centered on a weekly series of interviews with high-level practitioners and leading SFS scholars who will assess the consequences of COVID-19 for issues in international affairs. Topics include great power competition, fragile states, democracy and disruption, the global financial system, the role of social media, public health and racial injustice, and much more. Each interview will be followed by a discussion among SFS faculty and students on the topic.
