By Communications Staff The Queen’s School of Policy Studies is laying out strategies for building a better society in the wake of COVID-19 in a series of white papers.

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have rippled across every aspect of society. To confront all this change and uncertainty, the Queen’s School of Policy Studies (SPS) brought together researchers from across the university to create several interdisciplinary COVID-19 working groups to explore the impact of the pandemic and ask how we might use it as an opportunity to reshape some parts of our world for the better. Each of the eight working groups focuses on a specific topic, including arts and culture, economics, and healthcare.
