This project aims to identify how vulnerable groups in our communities are impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic so that effective policy recommendations can be developed to help them.
The details
The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately impacted some socio-economic groups compared to others.
This research project aims to investigate how some of the more vulnerable groups across the United States, Australia and Canada are recovering from the impact of the pandemic. A cross-national comparison will then be made to identify broad trends in the experiences of these vulnerable groups and to see if any conclusions can be drawn.
The results of this project will assist in the development of clear, evidence-driven COVID-19 recovery policies.
