19 projects explore social and cultural impacts of COVID-19
The Trans-Atlantic Platform (T-AP) for the Social Sciences and Humanities, an unprecedented collaboration between humanities and social science research funders from South America, North America and Europe, is pleased to announce the 19 awardees of the T-AP Recovery, Renewal and Resilience in a Post-Pandemic World (RRR) call.
Researchers expand our understanding of how to combat the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on society thanks to funding for 19 international projects.
The findings of the research aim to support global recovery and renewal, and to enhance the resilience of society in a post-pandemic world.
They are the first jointly-funded projects in the world to investigate the medium-and long-term effects of the pandemic on all aspects of health, social, economic, political, and cultural life in unprecedented detail.
The researchers leaded the projects, worth nearly 14.4 million Euros (approx.£12 million; approx. 16 million USD), from 12 countries across four continents.
The projects were funded by 16 major funders. The participating countries and funding organisations in this call were:
AKA(externer Link) (Finland), ANR(externer Link) (France), DFG(externer Link) (Germany), DLR-PT/BMBF(externer Link) (Germany), FAPESP(externer Link) (Brazil), FRQSC(externer Link) (Canada), HRZZ(externer Link) (Croatia), IDRC(externer Link) (Colombia, Costa Rica, and Peru) MINCIENCIAS(externer Link) (Colombia), NCN(externer Link) (Poland), NRF(externer Link) (South Africa), NSF(externer Link) (USA), SNSF(externer Link) (Switzerland), SSHRC(externer Link) (Canada), UKRI-AHRC(externer Link) (UK), UKRI-ESRC(externer Link) (UK)
The Topics Covered By The 19 Research Projects Include
- building resilient media and ensuring effective pandemic communication in divided societies
- exploring the effect of the pandemic on inequality in North and South America, and Europe
- analysing the trajectories, outcomes and sustainability of grassroots innovations and collaborations in marginalised and racialised communities
- understanding and supporting the recovery needs of socially, politically and physically marginalised communities using creative arts
- exploring the effects of the pandemic on governance, political participation, gender, and community actions
- ensuring the resilience of university instruction
- examining the effects on care work during and after the COVID-19 pandemic
Summaries of the projects are available below.
The projects started in March 2022 onwards and ran from between two and three years.
You also find project websites, project summaries and final White Papers submitted by successful teams as part of the end of project conference in May 2025. The virtual conference brought together the 18 successful projects, their collaboration partners and T-AP funder representatives from across the Atlantic to share research results and to reflect on the Recovery, Renewal and Resilience in Post-Pandemic World (T-AP RRR) call. Across two days, the event facilitated four roundtable discussions(Anchor Link) and each team provided a short overview of their work, followed by an exchange of ideas and plenary Q&A. Roundtables were moderated by academics from the T-AP Democracy, Governance and Trust (T-AP DGT)(interner Link) call and research teams had submitted project summaries ahead of the event to aid such discussions. It was also an opportunity for T-AP funder representatives to connect with participants via breakout rooms and learn from their experience of working in trans-Atlantic partnerships and with the platform itself.
A huge thank you to all participants, moderators and T-AP representatives for your efforts in making the event a success.
