Description

BACKGROUND/ OBJECTIVES

This year, 2020, has been a year like nobody could have anticipated. The Coronavirus and resulting COVID-19 disease have impacted all of us significantly, not just the people in our country but, globally. People’s lives have changed in ways that they would not have imagined. Social interactions have been constrained, work practices and working conditions have changed and the very way that communities operate on a day-to-day basis; shopping, travel, worship, and leisure have all been transformed.

So, what does this mean for everybody as we see these changes occurring before our eyes. Many of the things we have taken for granted are no longer available and we must move to an online/virtual environment. How do parents with young children explain the restriction that they must now place on them to comply with the law and keep them safe? For those who are now working from home, how do you create a professional space separate from the normal family interactions and how do you maintain the distinction between work and home?

This discussion is an opportunity for us to look at how the COVID-19 situation has affected each of our lives and share any coping strategies that can help us to not only survive but, excel during these challenging times.

I would like us to explore these changes in terms of our work/ professional life as well as our day to day social interaction, with our friends and families and with the wider community. To finish up, I would like you to think about your expectations for the future: do you feel pessimistic or optimistic?
