Abstract

The aim of this project is to gain insight into the consequences of the corona crisis for various vulnerable groups in the Amsterdam region and to investigate how aid is provided and how aid can be organized in the medium and long term. Researchers, care providers and experts by experience together draw up an inventory of the knowledge and experiences that have been acquired and develop aid solutions, taking into account the tension between health care, the economy and social effects. This project pays explicit attention to the ethical dilemmas in helping vulnerable groups.
