<p>This episode is the sixth in our <a href="https://www.futureoflondon.org.uk/knowledge/learning-from-crisis/">Learning from Crisis</a> 'Connections' series. It explores how Covid-19 has affected children, young people and families – and the impact this is having on women's careers, children's education and wellbeing, and our use of public space, particularly green space.
