During the Covid pandemic, we move to digital technologies with a series of weekly webinars running throughout the lockdown. We dedicated our journal to the ergonomics contribution to live with the pandemic and how to recover and redesign our systems after the pandemic. Now we are working with the national network of association of prevention on new approaches to manage work related stress and to prevent violence at the workplaces.

Isabella Steffan was nominated in 2022 as IEA fellow for her outstanding work on design for all at the national and international level.
