Being young in a time of pandemic

In this podcast we explored the effects of the COVID 19 pandemic, and of the general economic context in which lockdown is occurring, on young people. We heard from Jonathan Laszlo, a health care researcher living in Belgium; Tommy Hickey, a law graduate living in the Dublin area; and Amber Wilmott, an A-level student in southern England. David Somekh joined Caroline Whyte as co-interviewer. Topics discussed include the biggest challenges that young people in industrialised countries are facing, the things that governments could be doing better, and the most unexpected aspects of the lockdown.
