Comparative Covid Response: Crisis, Knowledge, Politics
As the world tried to make sense of the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, ESG was invited to participate in a 23 country and 6 continent-wide collaborative study involving 60 researchers led by Pforzheimer Professor of Science and Technology Studies Sheila Jasanoff of the Harvard Kennedy School and Prof. Stephen Hilgartner of Cornell University in a study on Comparative Covid Response: Crisis, Knowledge, Politics (CompCoRe for short).
ESG contributed the India case study to the initiative’s interim report entitled Comparative Covid Response: Crisis, Knowledge, Politics, which was released in the Futures Forum on Preparedness organised by Schmidt Futures early January 2021, a study that has been reported by the New York Times.
