Biodiversity conservation, zoonotic diseases, and human security in Africa two years into COVID-19

On January 14, the Brookings Institution's Africa Security Initiative and Initiative on Nonstate Armed Actors hosted a panel discussion exploring the following questions: What have the effects of COVID-19 been on conservation in Africa and poaching and wildlife trafficking as well as legal wildlife trade? What effective response measures have been adopted or need to be developed going forward? And has the COVID-19 become an impetus for radically intensified protection of biodiversity and led to genuine transformation toward "One Health," or has it become not only a tragedy, but also a wasted opportunity for biodiversity conservation and human security?
