Coronavirus Pandemic has grievously impacted youth around, for instance, in terms of development. Some part-time jobs were done by the youth back then, such as packaging, freelancing jobs, and others, came to an end per se. Coronavirus pandemic has changed the world's activities, where those who used to work in person are now working remotely. In some cases, others lost their jobs to ensure the crowdedness of people at the workplace. There, many youths became unemployed, which increased the level of poverty in the countries.
The youth have been impacted greatly by the pandemic. Lockdown has held them back from the activities they used to take for granted, making them feel isolated from the lack of meaningful communication. A massive problem that many youth have had is a setback in their education, some not receiving the developments they need and a concern of losing out on educational opportunities.
