Talking with EU - Episode 8: Inequalities during the COVID-19 pandemic

This episode was recorded as part of the IEE-ULB's #EUqualis Jean Monnet Center of Excellence.EUqualis is focused on exploring "(in)equality and the EU" from various perspectives, including the students'. As such, this episode produced by the students is published within the framework of the #EUqualis Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence (ERASMUS-JMO-2021-HEI-TCH-RSCH).The COVID-19 pandemic has had Europe in its grip for more than 3 years, fundamentally changing EU citizens’ lives. But not only had the pandemic limited citizens’ freedom but also reinforced inequalities in our society and between EU member states. And the consequences are still visible today.  New data from a study conducted by the Institute d’Études Européennes provide fresh insight into access and quality of higher education during the COVID-19 pandemic, making our two co-hosts, Daniele Bogani, and Arianna Flore, together with our two guests, Katherine Jeffery and Helin Borat, reflect on their own time at university during the pandemic.  But also: What did the EU do to tackle inequalities in our societies and between EU member states during COVID-19? And was that enough?  Listen to the full episode to get the Students’ POV.Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
