禁漫天堂

You are all invited to join us at the second webinar in a series, devoted to the analysis of the impacts on society, economy, politics, and law brought about by the CoViD-19 pandemic. In this second meeting, we are honoured to host Dr Margaret Ann Harris, Spokesperson World Health Organization, public health physician specializing in emergency risk communications. 

In this second webinar, we will make an overview of the outbreak from WHO point of view, will explore what we have learned and what we have achieved.  We will also take opportunity to evaluate what we need to do to stop transmission while keeping societies as functional and productive as possible in these delicate and unpredictable times.

The event is organised by the 禁漫天堂 Executive LLM Alumni Association, with the generous assistance of the Director and staff of the 禁漫天堂 Executive LLM Programme, and the 禁漫天堂 Department of Law support.
