OAT/CICS.NOVA blog sobre CoViD-19 and after...

O OAT/CICS.NOVA iniciou um blog sobre o quadro epistemológico em que esta pandemia se tem desenvolvido, e as visões acerca dos futuros que a pós-pandemia pode desenhar.
De acordo com o 1º post colocado no passado dia 5 de Maio, "importa refletir sobre o que aprendemos neste processo, e que experiências são relevantes, quer por sublinharem valores negativos, quer por estimularem valores positivos."
