The COVID-19 Civil Society Point of Contact

This compendium, prepared by the Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG) of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), aims to capture emerging trends in digital responses of UN Member States against the COVID-19 pandemic along with other digital government initiatives and provide a preliminary analysis of their main features. These cases are shared for exchange of information so that Member States can learn from each other and possibly create new partnerships.

The COVID-19 Civil Society Point of Contact serves as a connection between the Federal Administration and initiatives of Swiss civil society. It bundles specific needs and requests from civil society to the Federal Council Coronavirus Crisis Unit (KSBC). It also provides a platform for a targeted exchange between the Crisis Unit and initiatives from Swiss civil society.
