COVID-19 has taken the world by a storm, but none are more deeply affected than the world’s most vulnerable. Refugees and the internally displaced, individuals living under authoritarian regimes, and others living in countries with limited healthcare resources are facing, in some cases, life or death situations. While many countries battling their own domestic fight with COVID-19 are tempted to turn inwards, the U.S. as a global leader in the promotion of freedom has a responsibility to galvanize attention and partnership to ensure that the world’s most needy are receiving the assistance they need during the pandemic.

Join The Heritage Foundation for this webinar to learn about the unique challenges faced by Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh, the impoverished in North Korea, and the marginalized in China.

Featuring:

  • Daniel Sullivan, Senior Advocate for Human Rights, Refugees International

  • Kristina Olney, Director of Government Relations, Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation

  • Jeongmin Kim, Seoul Correspondent, NK News

Hosted by:

  • Olivia Enos, Senior Policy Analyst, Asian Studies Center, Heritage Foundation
