About the project

Launched in July, this Trinity Laban student-staff collaborative research began as four separate master’s projects before being brought together by programme leader Dr Liliana Araújo and further expanded to focus on students and teachers.

Now, Trinity Laban students and staff are working across music and dance to understand the motivational and emotional impact that Covid-19 is having on performing arts students and teachers.
