Abstract

The coronavirus pandemic has had the unanticipated consequence of shocking world sentiment with its virulence and speed of infection as it spread across the globe. Beyond the terrible impact at the personal level involving millions of infections and deaths and the tragedies this yielded for every family affected, there is an ongoing ‘new normal’ emerging. This new normal will be partially driven by economic as well as health realities and this chapter explores how our society coming out of the pandemic will be entirely different to our society going into the pandemic, arguing that universities will need to pivot from the old normal if they are to survive and thrive.
