Uniwersyteckie Czasopisma NaukoweThe Role of Diplomacy in the Times of the Coronavirus Crisis
Słowa kluczowe:
health diplomacy, science diplomacy, environmental diplomacy, economic diplomacy, COVID-19 pandemicAbstrakt
The author’s objective is to highlight the role of diplomacy during the COVID-19 pandemic. We discuss selected dimensions of diplomacy (health, economic…) and analyse how they have been adapted to new challenges resulting from the disease outbreak. The paper is concluded by a series of recommendations aimed at increasing the efficacy of diplomatic efforts. Despite its horrific impacts, the pandemic can be regarded as an opportunity to revitalise certain areas such as national economies, to make them more innovative and environmentally friendly. For diplomacy in the future, we expect the prevalence of digital use and a focus on health, science, and environmental diplomacy.
