- Description
- This UN policy brief focuses on the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on gender equality and women's rights. It looks at four thematic areas: economy, health, unpaid care work and gender-based violence. .The economic impacts of the pandemic are especially felt by women and girls who are earning and saving less, having insecure jobs or living near to poverty. The health of women is impacted by the reallocation of resources and priorities, including sexual and reproductive health services. The report states that unpaid care work, mainly performed by women, has increased with children staying at home and older persons who need more help. Besides, as a consequence of the 'lockdown' many women experience domestic violence. Suggestions for national policies imply including women and women’s organizations in all COVID-19 decision making processes, realizing an inclusive care economy and designing socio-economic plans with focus on women and girls.

- Description
- This report assesses potential consequences of the COVID-19 outbreak on women and on gender equality in Europe. It describes the risks of the crisis, including increasing care work for women, domestic violence against women and unequal representation of men and women in decision-making processes. Besides these negative effects, the COVID-19 crisis also created some new opportunities for a more .gender-neutral distribution of work. For example, teleworking men who share unpaid work with their partners. The authors conclude with policy recommendations to minimize the damages and realize potential benefits of the crisis on the equality between men and women in Europe.

- Description
- Across several social, economic, and political dimensions, women and girls are disproportionately affected by the COVID-19 crisis because of their sex. This working paper presents indicators for two dashboards, which give an overview of gender inequalities from the COVID-19 crisis. The first dashboard covers a set of indicators on capabilities at risk. The first set of indicators points to women's health and risk factors by examining women's presence in the health sector, access to sexual and reproductive health and their risk of underlying cardiovascular conditions. The second set of indicators explores women's presence in the formal and informal economy. The second dashboard offers indicators regarding safe space at the household level, time spent on unpaid domestic and care work, child marriage and intimate partner violence. It also covers indicators about women's representation in responding to the crisis through for example access to technology, education and political participation.

- Description
- In this report CARE draws attention to the short- and longer-term effects of the crisis on women’s economic wellbeing. It argues that the economic and financial impacts of public health crises are extremely gendered. Globally, and particularly in development and humanitarian settings, women are more likely to work in informal and/or low-paid jobs which frequently lack legal and social protections. Investment in women and their economic empowerment creates opportunities to improve the economic growth. It is crucial for COVID-19 decision-makers to consider both the needs and capacities of vulnerable populations, especially women and girls, and the effects of those strategies.
