Explore the individual and social responses to the initial COVID-19 lockdown and gain insight into the long-term consequences for children and adolescents.

This workshop uses the emotional epidemic curve to assist with understanding the onset of post-pandemic mental health challenges. Investigate the role that disaster psychiatry plays during a pandemic.
