How should we prioritize human rights in the midst of a pandemic? In episode three, Nathaniel speaks with Alex Neve, Secretary General of Amnesty International Canada. They discuss why human rights should be at the heart of the response to COVID-19, how Canada’s approach meets that call in many ways but falls short in others (notably for refugees), and what the future holds for a human rights agenda post-pandemic.
