Crowned vulnerabilities a new type of experience of youth

Abstract

The year 2020 brought a series of previously unknown experience, events and life situations to the world. Fear of the unknown, uncertainty, unpredictability and dramatic changes have had a strong impact on all segments of society. We suppose that the COVID-19 epidemic will lead to new types of vulnerabilities in the lives of young people while previous types of vulnerabilities are still present as well; thus a new type of experience of youth will forcibly be generalised in the subsequent period. In this study we examine the life situation of young university students from several aspects, especially in the field of education, work and leisure time.
