Abstract

Selama pandemi COVID-19, negara-negara anggota APEC menghadapi tantangan besar dalam mencapai tujuan pembangunan infrastruktur dikarenakan pandemi COVID-19 yang berdampak pada berbagai aspek kehidupan masyarakat dan ekonomi, sehingga mereka mencari jalan keluar untuk isu ini. Artikel ini akan menggunakan teori Kerjasama Internasional, Pembangunan Internasional, dan Dependensi. Isu akan dibahas melalui metode penelitian kualitatif dan analisis sumber data sekunder. Dalam mengatasi hal tersebut, APEC melaksanakan kelanjutan dari APEC Putrajaya Vision 2040, Experience Exchange, dan Belt Road Initiative. Kerja sama yang dilakukan menghasilkan bantuan fasilitas kerjasama ekonomi dan integrasi regional. Meski begitu, kerja sama yang dilakukan sebenarnya telah direncanakan bahkan sebelum pandemi COVID-19 dan hanya dilakukan dengan lebih giat untuk mengatasi dampak pandemi COVID-19 yang hadir.   Kata kunci—APEC, Ketimpangan infrastruktur, Pembangunan internasionalDuring the COVID-19 pandemic, APEC member countries faced major challenges in achieving infrastructure development goals due to the COVID-19 pandemic impacting various aspects of people's lives and the economy, thus they looked for a way out.
