How CEPL is responding to COVID-19

The members of CEPL are contributing to the public discussion of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we hope to help people make sense of this unprecedented event. We have published a number of short pieces across Irish and international media, as well as on this webpage. Our pieces include questions about issues of trust in experts and authorities, about how deeper reflection can help manage the stress and uncertainty of the current time, and questions about the bigger picture of our societal response to the pandemic.

We also ask you to give us your questions about the COVID-19 pandemic, and we will try to answer them.
