COVID-19 and Children of Colour in Scotland: Visions for Change
Date and time
Location
Online event
Please join us to launch the findings of this research project and discuss implications for research, policy and practice in Scotland.
About this event
This project centred the views of children of colour living in Scotland. It explored their lived experiences of the pandemic and their visions for change. It was conducted by researchers from Queen Margaret University in Scotland.
Children wanted their views to be shared widely in their own communities and with people in power such as teachers, politicians, lawyers and health workers. At this event we will share the findings of the project, launch our comic book which will be shared widely with decision-makers around Scotland, and open the floor for discussion of what needs to happen now.
The event will be held online, using Zoom. For security reasons and to protect the safety of the space, only registered participants will be sent the link. The link will be sent closer to the time of the event.
