Abstract

The COVID-19 crisis is a unique situation but there have been many previous disasters that have resulted in school closures and created emotional difficulties for children (particularly those with vulnerabilities). This project will review the scientific literature on interventions that have followed previous disasters so that we can ensure local and central government follow the best possible evidence when attempting to mitigate the problems created by the COVID-19 crisis.
