Although some countries don’t want to use the word ‘lockdown’, the reality is that much of the globe is living and working in confined conditions, at home especially, and also in the spheres of education, work and leisure.

However justified lockdowns may be in this time of crisis psychologists suggest they can produce anxiety, stress, and cause trauma; economists point to the financial hardship some families and businesses will feel; criminologists note the greater risk of domestic violence and opportunities for fraud; sociologists invite consideration of the dangers of not being able to socialise and many feel that as time goes on the risks escalate. All these issues – and many more besides – have important implications for security and these issues will be debated.

Key questions this webinar covers include:
What input does security have in this time of heightened alert?
What are the main risks during this time and how should they be managed?
What are the key messages and how should they be communicated?

Panelists:
Michel de Jong – The Netherlands
Rajiv Mathur – India
