Abstract

Africa’s Knowledge Bridge stands as a testament to the resilience and dedication of researchers striving to comprehend the profound impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). In the wake of the unprecedented global crisis, this book emerges as a comprehensive examination of the multifaceted repercussions experienced by the region, encompassing mental health, demographic disparities, vaccine perceptions, and compliance with public health measures. The scope of this book extends beyond mere observation, delving deep into the heart of the pandemic’s effects on SSA through diverse methodologies including web-based surveys, cross-sectional studies, and thematic interviews. By gathering data from SSA residents, diaspora, healthcare workers, and specific demographic groups, this research paints a vivid picture of the challenges faced and the resilience displayed by communities across the region.
