This seminar aims to achieve several objectives, including: promote the sharing of experiences by both the public and private sector on the impact of Covid-19 on MSMEs in Southern Africa, highlighting commonalities and differences in response strategies that were deployed to minimize impacts; stimulate reflections on how MSMEs in Southern Africa can best build back better, especially in the context of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), other trade agreements and regional collaboration.
