>From older Australians, homeless people, and frontline healthcare professionals to highly policed communities, the precariously employed, and victims of domestic violence, some in the community have suffered disproportionately.

The accelerated spread of COVID-19 in already disadvantaged areas has profound consequences for our physical health. But the emotional toll of the pandemic has also been distributed highly unevenly across persons and communities. It is these emotional impacts and their likely legacy beyond the present that are the focus of this event. Specifically, this webinar will map the emotional contours and costs of COVID-19, including various forms of suffering and solidarity, as well as the impacts of government efforts to contain the virus.

This event is a collaboration between The University of Sydney’s Sydney Centre for Healthy Societies and School of Social and Political Sciences; and The Australian Sociological Association.

I acknowledge and pay my respects to the Traditional Custodians of the land I work and live on, particularly the Bedegal and Gadigal Peoples, and their elders past and present. Sovereignty was never ceded, and the struggle for justice continues.
