The Experiences During the COVID-19 Pandemic Project is a student-led survey, designed by undergraduate representatives in the History Department at the University of Sydney. The goal is to contribute to the archival record that documents this moment in time, in a way that will be useful for future scholars.

The survey is in two parts. The first asks for your personal stories and experiences about self-isolation over the few months in 2020. The second queries the institutional response to the pandemic, including questions about the creation of knowledge about this moment in time.
