Socioeconomic Recovery from Covid

We carried out a comparative study of international policies related to socioeconomic recovery from Covid-19, with a view to learning lessons for Scotland.

Decision-makers around the world are grappling with how best to support social, health and economic recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic. We conducted an international comparison of Covid-19 recovery strategies developed by countries with key similarities to Scotland, in order to understand what lessons might be learned for socioeconomic recovery here in Scotland.

Please take note of the dates of reviews and publications. Reviews produced earlier in the pandemic may have be superseded by more recent findings.
