INSPECT Societal Security after COVID 19

The restrictions and insecurities following from COVID 19 have negatively affected many students' learning and well-being, and the two-year-long pandemic has disturbed some of the fundamentals of students’ existence (their worldviews, understanding of themselves, and educational aspirations and plans).

Based on our knowledge about these short-term consequences, there is reason to worry about the Nordic schools' strong tradition around establishing the best conditions for the individual student's learning, well-being and development in both a Bildung and a lifelong learning perspective. 

The INSPECT project collects systematic knowledge about strategies and efforts applied in different national, regional, and situational contexts across the five Nordic countries, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Iceland, during and after the pandemic. Furthermore, the project investigates the medium to long-term consequences of COVID 19 for different groups of students.

The project thus offers solid knowledge about the long-term consequences of COVID 19 that can help the Nordic schools to maintain their strong traditions and ensure social security going forward.
