Episode description

One of the first ideas we had when launching #arsboni​ was to dedicate it to first-hand reports of our international team members on the situation in their home countries.  One of the first episodes of this podcast was dealing with the then  still new situation in South Africa.  Check out the first episode on Covid19 in South Africa a year ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBYJ0zTybqU ​  

Today, a year later, we look again into South Africa: Our team member Tima O. Anwana will give us an update on the legal and educational implications of Covid-19 in South Africa in spring 2021.
