Episode 33 - 100 Families Part 2 with the 100 Families project team The Meaning of Health Podcast

    • Science

We sit down with members of the 100 Families project team for the second time to discuss the findings of their snapshot report looking at the Social impacts of COVID-19 on families living in hardship. We discuss the many ways in which COVID-19 and the associated restrictions have impacted on the 100 Families participants, which included disruptions to their normal medical care and social support services, and greater home schooling responsibilities with their children. We also talk about how receiving the additional COVID-19 supplement payments through Centrelink has helped to lift many people above the poverty line during the pandemic, and concerns for what the future holds in light of the Commonwealth Government announcement that this is being substantially reduced and potentially removed altogether in 2021. We hope you enjoy the conversation.
