There’s Hope in the Young People
Allow me to introduce myself: my name is Renee St-Jean, I am 24 years old, and I live in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. I am currently finishing my honours bachelor’s degree with a major in Psychology, a minor in Neuroscience, a concentration in Health Psychology, mental health and well-being. It has been a privilege to be an intern for KORI.

I have spent the last few weeks reading my way through a lot of reports and inquiries ranging from official inquiries commissioned by the UK government to reports conducted by civil society groups or university or private research firms.

Education in Quarantine
On the 16st March 2020, the UK government announced that they were implementing a nation-wide quarantine due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus, this inevitably resulted in the closure of schools and universities across the country.
