Brigid Schulte
Director, Better Life Lab
The coronavirus pandemic is completely upending the way we work, live, connect with one another and what we expect from our government, communities and each other. It鈥檚 all happening so fast that stress levels and anxiety are sky high. That鈥檚 why the Better Life Lab is hosting a weekly interactive conversation for people to come together, share stories and begin to make sense of what鈥檚 unfolding and what it could mean for the future of gender equity, health, how we work and how we live.
Crisis Conversations鈥揕ive from Better Life Lab is hosted by Brigid Schulte and produced by David Schulman.
Political pundits have long insisted that care issues like childcare, elder care and paid and unpaid caregiving are not 鈥渂read and butter鈥 economic issues that move voters or swing elections. Will that change in this unprecedented time of COVID-19? Are voters beginning to see that care work is no longer just 鈥渨omen鈥檚 work,鈥 but central to a functioning economy? And what difference could that make on Nov. 3?
