Social network users respond to coronavirus with anti-crisis projects
The catalogue named "Quarantinum" has collected links to more than 150 resources and projects that will help to fruitfully and with pleasure spend time, despite the restrictions imposed because of the coronavirus, and also to help people at risk to receive the required psychological and legal support.
The "Quarantinum" is divided into 14 sections, the first of which is "Official Resources and Statistics" on the coronavirus situation in Russia and the world.
The section "Charitable Organizations and Actions" lists the support actions against a pandemic, for example, delivery of foodstuffs to the elderly, and training of doctors and volunteers.
The legal help during the crisis is a project of the "Agora" international human rights group, which over the past month was addressed by about 20 people, who faced problems due to the pandemic. In particular, people were forcibly hospitalized, despite their negative coronavirus tests, and fined for garbage removal.
The section "Education" contains resources for self-education and websites of the establishments that have switched over to the online mode.
The section "Culture and Entertainment" allows users to select an online concert, exhibition or another interactive event.
