Viable, sustainable economic stimuli for coping with the economic consequences of the corona crisis (especially for SMEs)

The aim of the project is to make proposals for sustainable economic stimuli for a sustainable stimulus package in the Covid-19 crisis. First, earlier economic stimulus programmes launched in Germany and other countries in the wake of the financial and economic crisis of 2008/2009 are evaluated. Criteria for economic stimulus programmes are developed and sector-specific and overarching challenges described. Based on these criteria, proposals for sustainable economic stimulus measures are identified, analyzed, evaluated and described in the form of fact sheets. In addition, a qualitative short assessment of the Coalition Committee's decision on the economic recovery package published during the project period is carried out.
