Research output: Contribution to conference › Oral Presentation/ Invited Talk

Abstract

Over the last few years, the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated societal inequalities, posing specific challenges for young people. The University of Leicester’s ‘Covid in Cartoons’ project, led by Fransiska Louwagie and Di Levine, focuses on how young people can articulate their experience of the pandemic by reading and drawing political cartoons. A public art installation featuring these participant drawings has been developed by Rebecca Harvey-Hobbs from Vehicle Arts, who will discuss the links between research, arts and public engagement in the context of the Covid-19 crisis.
