More than six months since COVID entered Victoria, where do we find ourselves?

This special Victorian Council of Social Service / Anti-Poverty Week event will explore lessons from the pandemic, and discuss how the virus exploited vulnerable communities and exacerbated pre-pandemic levels of poverty and hardship.

We’ll also look ahead to how the state’s recovery strategy should be shaped.

Guests include:

🔹 Luke Donnellan, Minister for Disability, Ageing and Carers and Child Protection
🔹 Emma King, CEO, Victorian Council of Social Service
🔹 Hutch Hussein, Brotherhood of St Laurence COVID-19 Policy & Program Response Taskforce
🔹 A representative of the Victorian Public Health team,
🔹 More to come…
