At this session of The Conversation Series, Professor Chinmay Tumbe, Assistant Professor, Economics Area, Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad, speaks on ‘Pandemics, Panic, And Preparedness: Decoding The Past To Decipher The Present And Delineate The Future’. He explains how past pandemics changed people’s lives and livelihoods, and lessons for the present and inevitable similar crises in the future. He also answers questions about what could have been done better if we had not forgotten the past. Professor Tumbe is the author of ‘The Age of Pandemics', which describes how the world at large, and India in particular, endured three other pandemics over a century ago.
