COVID-19-related Events & Trainings
Since the coronavirus pandemic struck, the School of Social Work has been offering contents related to COVID-19, in various formats, including special episodes of Social Impact LIVE, our talk show covering topics of relevance to social workers; special events such as Dean Melissa Begg’s panel on stigma and racism in times of epidemics and the Poverty Center’s conference on income support in crisis; and trainings of relevance to the social work profession at this challenging time—one of the pillars of our faculty’s new COVID-19 ACTION initiative, now called the ACTION Lab.
All of this content is (or soon will be) stored on the School’s YouTube channel. The following index serves as a guide to playlists as well as particular programs:
