About This Book
This book considers the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the realisation of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. Although efforts towards the attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals are ongoing, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on these efforts: accentuating inequities, as well as absorbing resources. This book addresses this impact, as it takes up the question of how to ensure global recovery – in line with the target for the Sustainable Development Goa
Our Review
This timely legal analysis examines how the COVID-19 pandemic fundamentally disrupted global progress toward the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals, creating new challenges for equitable development and resource allocation. Arimoro provides a clear-eyed assessment of how the health crisis exacerbated existing inequities while redirecting crucial resources away from long-term sustainability targets. The book tackles the complex legal and policy frameworks needed to rebuild global systems in alignment with SDG objectives, offering a roadmap for post-pandemic recovery that doesn't abandon sustainable development principles.
What distinguishes this work is its forward-looking approach to international law and development policy, moving beyond mere documentation of pandemic impacts to propose concrete legal mechanisms for course correction. Legal scholars, policymakers, and development practitioners will find particularly valuable insights into how law can serve as both barrier and catalyst for sustainable recovery. The book's strength lies in its balanced treatment of urgent recovery needs alongside long-term sustainability commitments, making it essential reading for anyone concerned with building more resilient global systems.
