Abstract
On a continuum to attain sustainability public sector entities must think about the impact of current decisions on long-term sustainability. The Covid-19 pandemic has caused a worldwide economic collapse, and had magnified the pronounced inequality and poverty in South Africa. Secondary data analysis was used to do a systemic review of the literature to review Covid-19 and sustainability articles. Articles were analysed to identify common themes related to Covid-19 and Sustainability. Several themes were extracted from the literature that linked Covid-19 and sustainability. Public entities must develop sustainability strategies and approaches to navigate Covid-19 and other pandemics. The themes that emerged were aligning sustainability to strategy, ensuring governance, and compliance, effective partnerships, leadership, and effective people orientation.
