Faculty of Education's COVID-Related Research

Throughout the pandemic, there has been much discussion about COVID's health implications, vaccine efficacy, and evolving safety measures, but COVID's impact goes far beyond medical research. For more than a year, COVID has affected our daily lives in multiple facets and McGill's Faculty of Education has been at the forefront of researching COVID's societal impacts. The Office For the Faculty of Education Research: Initiatives, Networking, and Grants (OFFERING) has highlighted some of the vital COVID-related funded research projects being done by our academics:
