CANADA AND THE WORLD POST-COVID

Course Outline

The COVID crisis has, among other things, reminded us about both the world’s interdependence and inequality. The virus’s rapid spread across borders shows how Canada’s future is so deeply tied to the fate of the rest of the world. And the way in which different countries have been able to respond to the crisis has uncovering new truths about what is required to actually secure and advance an improved quality of life for humanity.

Some of these truths have simply been re-discovered: much of humanity, especially in the developing world, have not had access to health care or economic support that has been critical to the response in Canada, reminding us of some of the basic inequalities the world continues to experience. But some truths seem new: some governments have performed particularly poorly, even when all the material and knowledge resources were available.

How should Canada and Canadians respond to these realities? How do individual Canadians, professionals, and companies think about exercising their global citizenship, where through their time, knowledge, donations, or corporate social responsibility (CSR) to be part of a stronger world coming out of this COVID crisis? Khalil will draw out the key implications for us all as we navigate a post-COVID world.
