Speakers: Holly Lard Krueger, Laura Kim, and Michelle LeMeur. 

The detrimental impact of COVID-19 on the workforce participation and career ambition of women and ethnic or racial minority groups is well documented, but there is notably limited evidence from the international development sector.

In response, the Feed the Future Market Systems and Partnerships Activity is investing in understanding the specific ways in which the global pandemic is impacting the current and future pipeline of senior leaders on market systems development activities.

During this interactive webinar, the researchers will present key findings from the research and recently-published brief and study. See registration page for more detail.
