The corona crisis is having a major impact on our society. Within the faculty, researchers from various disciplines are working together to better map out the consequences of the corona crisis. With their research, they help governments to improve their policies for this crisis.
On this page, you find a selection of the ongoing studies into the consequences of the corona crisis and some (preliminary) results of these studies. The Erasmus Initiative Vital Cities and Citizens (VCC) focuses its research on the impact of the corona crisis on cities and their citizens.
Researchers are also regularly approached by the media for their expertise on this subject. View a selection of these media appearances on this page.
