Theme 2 Research Report: A comparative study on the response of NPOs in education to the COVID-19 pandemic
Education Researchers Respond to The COVID-19 Pandemic. The main purpose of the research was to investigate how NPOs in education, as a valuable stakeholder group in the education ecosystem, were responding to the worldwide COVID-19 crisis, with an emphasis on those operating in South Africa. A secondary purpose was to make recommendations for long term changes essential for the future sustainability of NPOs.
Research Infographic Theme 3: The role of culture in alleviating the spread of COVID-19
As part of this research, we are interested in understanding the following: What role has culture played in affecting responses to the crisis by both governments and the governed? How have cultural practices been adapted in response to the spread of the pandemic? What means and avenues were leveraged to initiate social responses?
Research Report Theme 3: The role of culture in alleviating the spread of COVID-19
In the context of this research, culture is defined as the way of life, including the customs, beliefs, and traditions, of a particular group of people at a particular time. Culture also encompasses religion, food, art, fashion, language, patterns of work and leisure and social habits all learned through socialisation. Importantly, the education system in a country is representative of the prevailing culture in a specific context and entrenches a certain culture within society. Education systems are one of the crucial venues through which individuals engage society, and schools form avenues for cultural engagement as community institutions. Given the interconnected world that we live in, culture is a fluid concept that changes as our interactions progress.
