The dashboard below presents data from a set of socio-economic response monitoring indicators that emanated from the UN framework for the immediate response to the socio-economic impact of COVID-19. This dashboard followed the call from the Secretary-General’s to develop a "… single, consolidated dashboard to provide up-to-date visibility on [COVID-19] activities and progress across all pillars”. The indicators monitor the progress and achievements of UNCT’s collective actions in socio-economic response. Together with the indicators monitoring the health and humanitarian responses, and the indicators monitoring the human rights impact of COVID-19, they make up the core basis for the UN system’s indicator framework for COVID-19.
Data is collected by the UNCTs and reported through the UN INFO platform. The dashboard is powered by the collective data collection efforts of UNSDG members.

COVID-19 is wreaking havoc on already weak economies. A three-step approach was taken: A rapid assessment of the potential impact of the crisis on economy, labour markets, sectors, human needs, along with its gender impacts, is needed in order to quantify the spending necessary to contain it. An assessment of the fiscal space available for increasing spending, as it will in large part determine the government’s capacity for action. An analysis of policy priorities and available policy measures considering both financing and implementation constraints faced by governments.
