About the Seminar:
Early COVID-19 statistics have indicated that children and youth tend to do better—they are infected with SARS-CoV-2 less frequently and, for those that acquire the virus, they tend to have less severe outcomes. However, messages of this sort undermine the complex, immediate and long-term impacts of the pandemic on young people. Our analysis investigates these impacts and applies a justice-based lens to justify future investment in and attention paid to the lives of young people.
