The global pandemic of COVID-19 dominates the world’s attention. As governments are focusing their response on the domestic impacts of the virus, limited information and analysis are available on the impact of the pandemic on existing humanitarian crises and the immediate effects on vulnerable populations in conflict-affected settings.
