Investigation of the impact of global supply chain disruptions on international trade

This research project aims to study how natural disasters, political events, and other factors can disrupt global trade and supply chains, and how this affects the economy. The study will focus on the impact of the war in Ukraine and natural disasters in Japan. By identifying the products and industries most affected, the intern hopes to help policymakers and businesses develop strategies to mitigate the negative effects of supply chain disruptions on international trade. Intern will also analyze how the disruptions affected trade flows between Ukraine and neighboring countries, as well as global trade flows, and evaluate the impact on the global economy, including GDP growth and employment. The intern will use advanced research methods including statistical analysis to provide new insights into the complex dynamics of global trade and supply chain disruptions, ultimately contributing to more effective risk management strategies and more resilient global trade networks.
