Young People's Wellbeing During COVID-19
The motion
That the Parliament recognises the vital role of charities and third sector organisations in the continued response to COVID-19; praises the TIE campaign for hosting a series of interactive programmes for those impacted by COVID-19, including mindfulness awareness sessions and organising educational resources; understands that the TIE campaign has launched a confidential survey aiming to better understand the impact of the current lockdown on young people’s wellbeing and experiences of online spaces; understands that this survey was launched as UNICEF reported the increased risk of bullying and exposure to harmful content to young people as a result spending more time online because of the COVID-19 pandemic, and encourages all members to relay the survey to all youth groups and relevant contacts within their networks to aim to further protect the wellbeing and safety of Scotland’s young people.
