1: Intersectionality & Vulnerability
How did the pandemic measures impact vulnerable groups? And how can we use the theory of intersectionality to understand the impact of different pandemic measures? The first episode of the Beyond Numbers: Covid19 and Society podcast will focus on situating the pandemic in the context of societal inequalities. You can look forward to a discussion with our experts, Dr Viktoria Adler and Jil Molenaar, unwrapping the theory on intersectionality and vulnerability and sharing examples of how the pandemic affected some groups of people more than others.
The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic go far beyond physical health, challenging our well-being and mental health. But did it affect everyone the same? It is clear that the pandemic also uncovered and deepened the already existing inequalities in our society. This podcast is dedicated to examining those inequalities and the impact that different measures have on different groups. This podcast is an activity of COVINFORM, a project that has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research & innovation program.
