COVID-19 Justice
In the opening plenary session, Katleho Khang (Maseru, Lesotho) and Adarsh Rai (Darjeeling, India) explore how COVID-19 has exposed inequities within society and between the Global North and the Global South. Racialized and marginalized communities have faced higher rates of infection, suffered more job losses and experienced greater socio-economic inequities. This session also explores what social justice and solidarity in a COVID-19 world need to look like.
