Press/Media: Blogs and social media

Description

Children and young people’s lives have changed beyond recognition. Not only have schools and universities closed, but fundamental life events and experiences have been missed. They have made these sacrifices without revolt or complaint, says Deborah Ralls (University of Manchester), and we now owe it to them to ask them to help shape the post-COVID world.
