#HumaniSeries

HumaniSeries was a three-part campaign focused on UBC public humanities scholars: #HumaniReads, #HumaniStories, and #HumaniTalks. It was launched as a social media campaign on “Life in a time of COVID,” where scholars talked about how to survive social isolation, what to read, and how to stay connected.
