Abstract
ABSTRACT The year 2020 will always be remembered for COVID-19. The global pandemic has brought massive disruption to our everyday lives on many fronts—lockdowns, economic disaster, border closures, and an unprecedented uptake of online human engagement. Workplaces rose to the challenges of adapting to fully online environments. For some, this has been a smooth transition, but for others this change of work mode has brought high levels of stress, disconnectedness, dissatisfaction, and exacerbated isolation. Arguably, for those more vulnerable and marginalized peoples, there is a greater risk of negative outcomes than for those who are affiliated with the dominant society. In this article we share stories gathered from members of the Sydney Indigenous Research Hub of The University of Sydney. By applying the qualitative methodology of narrative enquiry to our shared stories, we will show how we have used online platforms to support and care for one another's individual and collective social and emotional well-being according to Indigenous ways of understanding.
