International trade and recovery strategies in Kenya in the context of COVID-19

Volume editor
Tabitha Kiriti-Nganga

Synopsis

COVID-19 led to an economic downturn not only in Kenya but also in the rest of the world. It put these countries into a recession due to the measures taken by trading partners to prevent the spread of the virus. This meant that Kenya needed to come up with monetary and fiscal policies and strategies to maintain macroeconomic and fiscal stability and accelerate the pace of economic growth by achieving resilience and sustainability of economic growth and development. 


This book uses descriptive and econometric methodologies that scholars can easily understand, using quality data from credible sources such as the Kenyan National Bureau of Statistics, the Ministry of Health, the World Bank, the World Trade Organization and the International Monetary Fund. The book can be used as reference material for both post and undergraduate students interested in international trade. Scholars can use the policies and strategies proposed in researching ways to deal with current and future pandemics.
