Community organisations, community activists & Covid-19: Poverty Alliance briefing.
This briefing from the Poverty Alliance highlights the experiences and perspectives from community organisations and community activists from across the Poverty Alliance network, on the impact that Covid-19 is having on them and the communities in which they live and work.
Community organisations have already begun to identify trends that have emerged in the few weeks since the crisis began to unfold. Those include, but are not limited to: digital exclusion issues; increased living costs; lack of awareness of social security entitlements; rising levels of food insecurity; mental health impact; and rising unemployment.
