Essay on life during lockdown
Answers
Explanation:
Millions of children across the world are facing life in lockdown. This can be a difficult time. Away from friends, away from school, away from education, this generation is missing out on everyday activities we used to take for granted.
For some, like 15 year old Ngo Trieu Vy in Viet Nam, it can also be a time to learn new skills and reconnect with hobbies and interests.
Ngo Trieu Vy last year took part in UNICEF’s ‘Our cities, through our eyes’ photography workshop, learning how to tell stories through photos. Here, she shares insights into her life on lockdown at home.
