The Now World - Episode 1: "Lockdown Time"

In this brand new podcast series, Ruihan, Thomas, Lingjia, Léna and Elize, will discuss a range of topics that affect them, as young people, in their day-to-day lives. This series aims to challenge the way we look at our societies and the ones around us and open up to all kinds of perspectives.

In this very first episode, they discuss the phenomenon that has been dominating most of our lives for the past year: the Coronavirus. How do they, as first and second year university students cope with the lockdown, and more importantly, how has it affected crucial elements of our lives, such as funerals and weddings? This episode discusses the consequences of COVID-19 on their individual lives, but also the repercussions for the rest of society and how politicians in different countries have dealt with it. To what extent have the policies implemented been effective, how can this crisis be dealt with more effectively, and what alternatives are there? These are just a few questions this episode deals with. Join our discussion and tune in!
