With the global pandemic transforming education and shifting education online, a new collaboration has seen a number of global students come together to talk about their experiences of living through the pandemic. Lockdown Live, an online series that aimed to unite students remotely, brought together Sussex Writes, a community project which sends Sussex students into schools to work with pupils on creative projects and writing projects and The Youth Café – a pan-African NGO which has a mission to advance youth-led approaches on a number of global issues.
