What can we do to help young people recover from the pandemic?

- An International Women’s Day Special


As children across the UK start heading back to the classroom, we speak to two leading academics, Professor Monica Lakhanpaul (UCL Population Health Science) and Dr Amelia Roberts (UCL IOE), whose work focuses on children and education [respectively]. With a focus on vulnerable children, our guests tell us more about the projects they're involved with to help mitigate the impact of the pandemic.


To celebrate International Women’s Day, in this episode we also hear about their passions and why and how they embarked upon their journeys in academia. Exploring their experiences as women academics during the pandemic, we hear about how they’re coping - and learn what we can do to support women in academia who may be struggling.
