📘 What interested our readers this year. At the top of many people’s minds in 2022 was the Russia-Ukraine crisis, including how the war may end and its wide-ranging ramifications. Readers also continued to be concerned about COVID-19, such as the impact of long-COVID on the U.S. labor market, what it will take for students to catch up, and what the pandemic means for overall U.S. population growth.
Additionally, people turned to Brookings to follow issues such as the January 6 hearings, student loan forgiveness, and major policy trends emerging in Africa.
