For the past year, MCLD has been holding monthly calls with partners and organizations around the world to discuss their responses to the Covid-19 pandemic. The calls have been a place for these organizations to collectively brainstorm solutions to problems they were facing and to build international solidarity during this crisis.
To commemorate one year of the pandemic and the MCLD-COVID calls, Charlie Estes conducted interviews with those who have been consistent attendees of and participants in the discussions to gather reflections on the state of their work and communities during COVID-19 and how the calls have impacted them.
