Convened by Professor Deborah Lupton, Vitalities Lab, Centre for Social Research in Health and Social Policy Research Centre, UNSW Sydney
This online symposium examines the social impacts of long COVID across a range of geographical locations and socioeconomic contexts.
Abstracts for possible presentations are invited from researchers on the following topics or any others related to the social impacts of long COVID:
- How living with long COVID affects people’s identities, social and family relationships, life opportunities and inclusion in society
- The economic impacts of long COVID
- How long COVID is affecting workplaces and educational settings
- How people with lived experience of long COVID are supporting and learning from each other
- Long COVID activism
- Media portrayals of long COVID
- Arts-based and other creative responses to the experience of long COVID
To submit an abstract for consideration, please email Deborah Lupton (d.lupton@unsw.edu.au) with a description of your proposed presentation (around 200 words in length) as well as a presentation title and the name/s and affilation/s of the presenters. Deadline for abstracts: 12 midnight in your time zone, 1 February 2024.
Once I see what time zones accepted presenters are in, I will try to structure the time of the event so that it fits presenters’ (and my) time zone as well as I can.
