02/07/2020 Rethinking Wales: What is the New Normal for Children?
Jul 02, 2020, 01:00 PM
The topic of this IWA Rethinking Wales discussion is how children have been affected by the changes to education and home life brought about by Covid-19.
The IWA’s #RethinkingWales series will explore the challenges we face because of Covid-19, and work out the opportunities for change.
An open, politically independent and inclusive space for discussion and debate is the best way to identify the challenges we face in Wales because of Covid-19, and work out where the opportunities for real change are.
We are well placed to bring those voices together, and the IWA #RethinkingWales series will explore how different sectors need to respond to this crisis and how we need to start thinking differently.
This session took place online on Thursday, 2nd July at 11 am.
The topic of the discussion is how children have been affected by the changes to education and home life brought about by Covid-19.
