About The 
Course

Introduction
COVID-19 
is a humanitarian crisis on a global scale.The rationale behind this training is 
based on the fact that in the wake of COVID 19 and trading, supply chains will 
be affected by some likely diversification among foreign suppliers. But again, 
this will be limited by economic viability. Businesses can plan for 
contingencies but in the end must preserve revenues and profits. The leanest of 
just-in-time supply chains may be a level of efficiency that can no longer be 
afforded. So, inventories will rise, but again be constrained by the economics 
of running a business. Outside of supporting the production and stockpiling of 
medical supplies and vaccines, technology and market forces will be much greater 
factors determining trading patterns than government policies, including the use 
of regional trade agreements. In an extreme emergency, even membership in a 
customs union did not prevent some individual national actions which were at 
odds with the ideal of a single market.
Regional 
trading arrangements can be useful for exploring paths forward for rule-making 
where progress would be more complicated to achieve on a global basis. In 
addition, regional integration can be productive and should be fostered. 
Nevertheless, in terms of total trade flows, sub-multilateral agreements are not 
determinative. Businesses still have to serve markets wherever they are located 
and will continue to need to reach out beyond the regions in which they are 
located.
Duration 10 
days.

Areas
Deep 
trade agreements could shape trade in the COVID-19 and postCOVID-19 period
Old 
and new measures can result from: 
As 
non-synchronized recovery creates competition for scarce demand, tariffs to 
redirect demand towards domestic production ?
In 
situations of scarcity, export restrictions to meet domestic demand ?
As 
states subsidize firms, recourse to countervailing duties (CVDs) ?
To 
address rising aversion to various risks, e.g. health, security, privacy, 
increasing regulatory protectionism (“precautionism”)
To 
deal with limited access to diagnostic tests, vaccines and treatments, attempts 
to overcome constraints posed by intellectual property rights.
