About

Birmingham City Council awarded a contract to Humankind Research for ethnographic research to inform the Director of Public Health Annual Report 20/21, focusing on the impact of COVID-19 on Birmingham residents.

The research involved 6-8 ethnographic studies of residents from diverse identity groups, including older adults, working adults, unemployed adults, teenagers, various ethnicities, LGBT individuals, people with disabilities, and different faiths.

The studies explored prolonged impacts of COVID-19, such as social distancing, illness, grief, mental health, and service delivery experiences, to identify areas of need and support recovery while minimising inequality.

The contract value was £37,100.
