SUMMARY:Online Seminar: The global recession and debt crises in the CEE region: Who has to bear the costs?
DESCRIPTION:Das Seminar ist Teil unseres Themenschwerpunkts Osteuropa/GUS und wird in Kooperation mit dem Center for Ecology and Sustainable Development (CEKOR\, Serbien) organisiert. Die Veranstaltung findet auf Englisch statt. \nIn cooperation with the Center for Ecology and Sustainable Development (CEKOR\, Serbia). The seminar will be held in English. \nInvitation\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDebt crises are not just a problem for large debtor countries in Latin America or the poorest countries in Africa. Countries in Central and Eastern Europe are also affected by over-indebtedness. After the collapse of real socialism in the late 1980s\, many countries in the region ran into payment difficulties. Now in 2020\, 15 out of 18 countries in the region are critically indebted. The main risks come from borrowing abroad. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has also always played a central role\, from the first shock liberalisation in the 1990s after the collapse of the Eastern Bloc to the current austerity programme. \nThe economic impact of the coronavirus pandemic is exacerbating existing crises and increasing inequality in many developing countries. Many countries are struggling with weak health systems due to previous austerity measures. Because of their income\, most countries in Eastern Europe/CIS are excluded from debt relief measures that the G20 and the IMF have created for developing countries to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. \nIn the seminar\, we would like to look at different country cases from the region to better understand the debt situation in the region\, and to answer the following questions: \n\nPre-COVID debt: What are the most important reasons for debt in the region? Was the region in a debt crisis before the coronavirus outbreak?\nIn what ways does the corona-induced global recession affect the region?\nWhat strategies and experiences do the countries in the region have in order to deal with the recession? How should these be evaluated?\nHow are civil societies in the region working on this topic? What are their demands?\nWhat starting points are there for partnership-based collaboration?\n\nInvitation as PDF \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\nDaniyar Serikov\, Economist\, Kazakhstan \nIrina Khantadze\, Center for Training and Consultancy\, Georgia \nZvezdan Kalmar\, Center for Ecology and Sustainable Development (CEKOR)\, Serbia \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\n\n\nParticipation is possible virtually via Zoom.
