The team surveyed more than 5,000 residents of Knowle West about their experience of digital technologies during the first COVID-19 lockdown. They found negative impacts that could shape educational outcomes, job opportunities or access to essential services.

The work was supported by the Elizabeth Blackwell Institute and Bristol Digital Futures Institute.
