Abstract:This bachelor thesis deals with the research question “What was the reaction of the UN Network on Migration on the consequences of the Covid19-Pandemic and how can we explain this reaction from the theoretical perspectives on Network Resilience?”. The research was conducted by establishing four expectations regarding the level of success of the network in managing the impacts of the crisis. The first one suggests that the success of the network’s resilience is dependent upon its activity after the start of the pandemic. The second one discusses the importance of evaluations in the network for their response to the crisis’ impacts, which is followed by the third, anticipating the rearrangement of priorities as an indicator of the network’s success in staying resilient. And the last one proposes that the level of success in resilience against the pandemic’s effects is dependent upon the inclusion of all levels and sectors, especially the local, in the decision-making process. The data was collected from several publications by the network and its stakeholders, including policy briefs, discussion papers, statements, and workplans. The results have shown that all expectations are somewhat met, yet the last two seemed to have a greater impact on the network's resilience level.
