2020: Endurance and Adaptation
2020 was a year of crisis and turmoil for the entire world. For ISGlobal it was also a year of adaptation and resilience, during which we strived to ensure the health and well-being of all our staff. But it was, as well, a defining occasion to accomplish our role as a global health institution, and help address the COVID-19 crisis at the global and local level through more than 30 new research projects, a wide variety of policy actions, and different training activities.
