COVID-19 ARTS RESPONSE
COVID-19 has caused an unprecedented global public health crisis. It has become clear that immediate individual and collective behavior change is essential to reducing incidences. Tools are critically needed to accelerate behavior change in an effort to "flatten the curve" of incidence and support collective resilience both during and in the aftermath of this crisis.
