Facing Precarity During the Pandemic and Beyond

Facing Precarity During the Pandemic and Beyond

Project Summary

To better understand the experiences of uncertainty and chaos during the pandemic, our research team has embarked on a series of studies and practice/policy-oriented contributions that explore precarity via the lens of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are engaged in a number of qualitative studies that are unpacking the nature of precarity and its impact on people and communities. We also have published a practice-oriented article on the intersecting losses of the pandemic, which is attached to this page. We hope to develop a critical theory of precarity that provides psychologists and related professionals with a means of understanding and supporting people and communities during the pandemic and beyond.
