Professor David McDonald (Global Development Studies) returns to Campus Beat to discuss Public Banks and Covid 19: Combatting the Pandemic with Public Finance, the groundbreaking follow-up to his co-edited collection Public Water and Covid: 19 Dark Clouds and Silver Linings.

We learn more about what authors in this collection suggest about best practices and areas for improvement vis-a-vis response to the global pandemic and changes that might be made to make public banks more equitable, democratic and sustainable moving forward.
