| Australians are now living in COVID-induced isolation. In this special Q+A we look at how to home school the kids, work from home, and live on top of each other without going crazy!
How should we deal with the inevitable surges in domestic violence, mental health issues and unemployment? And what if you don’t have a home? How can we support the most vulnerable members of our community?
Send us a video showing how you’re coping with lockdown, or with a question for the panel via the Q+A website.
Q+A is live from Sydney on Monday, April 13 at 8.30pm AEST.
Joining Hamish on the Panel:
Matt Preston, Food critic and author
Craig Foster, Refugee advocate and former Socceroos captain
Julie McCrossin, Broadcaster and comedian
John Anderson, Former Deputy Prime Minister of Australia
Christine Morgan, CEO, National Mental Health Commission and National Suicide Prevention Adviser to the Prime Minister
With live cross to author and former teacher, Gabbie Stroud, a special appearance from TV presenter and landscape architect Costa, and a performance by The Wiggles!
Watch Q+A on Monday at the special time of 8.30pm on ABC TV, streamed live on ABC iview or on our website. |
