A survey of children and young people in Aotearoa discusses how the impact of the Covid-19 lockdowns varied depending on their family situation, with those already disadvantaged usually faring worse, Children’s’ Commissioner Judge Andrew Becroft says.
Life in Lockdown, a survey of more than 1400 tamariki and rangatahi aged between 8 and 18, was undertaken by the Office of the Children’s Commissioner immediately after the level 3 and 4 lockdowns in March to May this year. It asked young New Zealanders about their living situation, relationships, learning, general wellbeing and how they spent their time during lockdown.
