The Pandemic and Beyond: The Arts and Humanities Contribution to Covid-19 Research and Recovery is an AHRC-funded research project at the University of Exeter. The project coordinates and communicates Arts and Humanities research projects that are designed to explore and mitigate the wide-ranging impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic. It provides interdisciplinary support to coordinate the Covid-19-related research funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, providing a virtual hub where researchers, user groups and policymakers can meet, find out about related projects, and work together to share expertise and resources.
