- England
The APPG (All Party Parliamentary Group) is a cross-party group of parliamentarians who meet to look for policy solutions that break down barriers to integration and which create opportunities for people from all walks of life to connect with each other and build bonds of trust.
The COVID-19 crisis has the potential to disrupt social integration. But the generous response of so many people is an opportunity to look to the future and to build a more socially integrated society. The APPG plans to examine learning from the COVID-19 crisis and the legacy in relation to social integration. This is the first of a two-part enquiry into the effects of COvid-19 on social integration. Topics considered relate to the wide-ranging impact of Covid-19, the effect it has had on community relations, the response to the crisis and the role of volunteering during this time.
Short- and long-term solutions are offered to guide the Government, and society’s response to Covid over the coming months.
