It provides recommendations to support more gender-equal and resilient communities in sustainable environments.

- Description
- The COVID-19 pandemic unfolds in a world already experiencing a hunger crisis. The effects of the pandemic show the existing flaws in food systems. Most of them stem from gender inequalities and unfair treatment of women and girls, who are the majority of food producers and food providers for their households. However, their contributions are frequently unseen. Despite their bariers, women and girls already take initiative to meet COVID-19-related challenges. This CARE analysis provides global policy recommendations, argueing that involving women and girls is good for food systems as well as for pandemic responses generally.

- Description
- Discussion note on the effects of gender-responsive fiscal policies on women’s labor participation in the last three decades. It also explores how these policies affect gender wage gaps, economic growth, income inequality and poverty in both advanced economies and low-income countries. For advanced economies, it focuses on for example reducing the cost of childcare and providing publicly financed maternity leave. For low-income countries, the note considers the impact of investing in education, providing cash transfers to poor women in the labor force and investing in infrastructure. Results show that gender-responsive fiscal policies can support female labor force participation and have important macroeconomic effects.

- Description
- Collection of essays on the legitimacy of the modern feminist movement. The author argues that mainstream feminists rarely discuss basic needs as a feminist issue and as a result fail to address the needs of all women. Drawing on her own experiences with hunger, violence, and hypersexualization, along with commentary on politics, pop culture and the stigma of mental health, she writes a call to all would-be feminists to live out the true mandate of the movement in thought as well as in deed.
