About the Project

The consequences of COVID19, and the lock-down that ensued, have been and will continue to be significant for the NPA area and beyond. A collective approach across jurisdictions is required to enable sustainable, coherent and co-operative responses. There is a need to understand patterns of spread, to be better prepared for a second wave should it happen. The lock-downs in themselves have had serious repercussions in terms of mental health and well-being, and in terms of society and economy. 

The CoRe project collated the information and learnings from all the thematic projects: Clinical aspects, Health and well being, Technology solutions, Citizen engagement, Economic impacts and any Emerging themes.  The project aimed to contribute to changes sought by the programme by working together at a transnational level to exchange knowledge which will assist in the responses to the virus at local and national levels. Through a flexible and dynamic Management Team consortium the project developed and utilised the NPA Covid-19 Response Group, support the thematic projects, bring together representation from all NPA partner countries, raise awareness of the thematic work being carried out and created a packaged output of new knowledge
