This series examines labor market and social policy reform in the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic. Employment challenges and social demands for relief will remain high and it is time for fresh thinking and new policy perspectives everywhere.

A spotlight will be placed on Brazil as it struggles to recover from severe social distress.
