Abstract

This chapter aims to investigate governmental responses and policies to combat the various risks imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic across three countries: Egypt, Ireland, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Adopting the new public governance (NPG) approach, the study utilizes four indicators to assess the institutional resilience of the three sectors of health, education, and labor force. The chapter contains three sections. Section 1 is devoted to the NPG indicators. Section 2 describes the profile of the three countries and their COVID-19 data. Section 3 shows the response of the three institutions. The study showed that there is a disparity among the three countries in achieving the principles of NPG. Many lessons with regard to institutional resilience and potential risk during crisis can be drawn from the experience of the three countries.
