Forum on Postsecondary Response to COVID-19

COVID-19 has cost thousands of lives, disrupted the global economy, and has changed the way we live. But we're not defenseless. We have a better understanding of the nature of pathogens and unprecedented capabilities and tools to fight them. During the month of April, 2020, BHEW brought together academic, industry, and civic leaders from across the country to explore what had happened, what was happening, and what they expected to happen in the weeks and months ahead. Each conversation focused on how the colleges and universities are supporting the response efforts. Watch the recordings.
