Further details from the authors:
The coronavirus crisis has brought into sharp focus and exacerbated the persistent and harmful inequalities in our societies, but while people are physically distant, many have discovered ways to connect with others and develop stronger communities. We will discuss how the scale of inequality is central to understanding these patterns and how we can create better futures.
