Parenting in a time of COVID-19

Nuffield Fellow Lucy Cluver and collaborators have produced a set of evidence-based resources for parents dealing with school closures and the increased strain of global coronavirus lockdowns, available online via the World Health Organisation.

Their work was featured on the University's Arts Blog on 4 August 2020 ('58 million downloads and counting: Oxford’s COVID-19 parenting advice'), and they wrote to the editor of Nature Human Behaviour about the need for a low-cost intervention to ease pressure on families ('The parenting 'vaccine'', 17 August 2020)
