While young people globally have been less impacted by COVID-19 health outcomes than have older age groups, they have been disproportionately affected with disruptions to both their education (access to school and 'online learning') and home/personal life (e.g. access to food, ability to play and have leisure, and overall living arrangements). Those disruptions, particularly in monetary-poor households, are linked to major failures on the part of the national governments to design COVID-19 prevention and containment policies that mitigated the harmful cost of these policies (Gourinchas, 2020). Given this, the psychosocial consequences of COVID-19 are likely to be more severe for this age group (Power et al., 2020). There is therefore a crucial need to understand how young people have adapted during the pandemic and to assess the wider impact of such processes of adaptations. To do so, we adopt a nexus approach, focusing on food, education, and play/leisure embedded within a wider understanding of the living settings (local places) and home/personal contexts (household composition and home/personal life).This project seeks to use an action research methodology to co-create this knowledge about such adaptations and generate wider recommendations, with young people, and the communities in which they live, and non-government bodies and non-profit organisations that focus on this age group. By co-creating knowledge, we aim to align our data collection efforts with these organisations' immediate knowledge needs to support the adaptations employed by young people to help them cope and recover from COVID-19 and associated policy responses. Our approach also allows to create a bridge between those affected by policy (young people) and those drafting and implementing policy (organisations). To do so, we focus on case studies in three locations: Mangaung and Moqhaka in Central South Africa, West Midlands in the UK, and São Paulo state in Brazil.

虽然全球年轻人受COVID-19健康结果的影响小于年长年龄组，但他们的教育（上学和“在线学习”）和家庭/个人生活（例如获得食物，玩耍和休闲的能力以及整体生活安排）受到的影响不成比例。这些中断，特别是在资金匮乏的家庭中，与国家政府设计COVID-19预防和遏制政策以减轻这些政策的有害成本的重大失败有关（Gourinchas，2020年）。鉴于此，COVID-19的心理社会后果可能对该年龄组更为严重（Power等人，2020年）。因此，迫切需要了解青年人在大流行病期间是如何适应的，并评估这种适应过程的更广泛影响。为此，我们采取了一种联系的方法，将食物、教育和游戏/休闲纳入对生活环境的更广泛理解中。（当地）和家庭/个人背景（家庭组成和家庭/个人生活）。该项目力求采用行动研究方法，与青年人及其生活的社区共同创造关于这种适应的知识，并提出更广泛的建议，以及专注于这一年龄组的非政府机构和非营利组织。通过共同创造知识，我们的目标是使我们的数据收集工作与这些组织的即时知识需求保持一致，以支持年轻人所采取的适应措施，帮助他们科普COVID-19和相关政策应对并从中恢复过来。我们的方法还允许在受政策影响的人（年轻人）与起草和执行政策的人（组织）之间建立桥梁。为此，我们重点研究了三个地方的案例：南非中部的Mangaung和Moqhaka，英国的西米德兰兹郡和巴西的圣保罗州。
