While most of the messages on COVID-19 have been directed at adults, children have been significantly affected by COVID-19 too. Children have been taken away from their friends, cannot see grandparents, are prevented from attending school, not have gardens to play in, and the clubs they attend have been disrupted. This should be acknowledged and children should be thanked for their patience. This can help support children in their understanding of evolving recovery measures such as exit strategies from lockdown and phased school return.
This lesson was offered by a Risk Management expert in Iceland during project data collection.
