- Description
- This resource guide responds to the gaps that exist in addressing the safety of women journalists online, that directly affects the quality of democracies and the right of society to access a plurality of information. The guide aims to assist states and provide guidance to all relevant stakeholders, including non-state actors, across the OSCE region in addressing online harassment and abuse against women journalists. After an introduction of the problem and a mapping of international human rights standards that support the safety of women journalists online, 40 actions are proposed to be implemented with one common gender-responsive approach. This publication is part of the project “Safety of Female Journalists Online”, or #SOFJO.

- Description
- This publication serves as a knowledge base to understand and enforce action concerning gender-based violence (GBV) and environmental issues. It argues that gender-based abuse is observed across environmental contexts and affects the security of communities and the realisation of sustainable development goals (SDGs). The analysis shows the interlinking nature of GBV across three main contexts: access to and control of natural resources (land, forests, agriculture, water and fisheries): environmental pressure and threats (environmental crimes, extractive industries and agribusiness and climate change and weather-related disasters): and environmental action to defend and conserve ecosystems and resources (women environmental human rights defenders, environmental projects and environmental workplaces). The publication focuses on awareness and engagement of actors working in environmental and sustainable development, gender equality and GBV policymaking to apply rights-based, gender-responsive approaches to environmental policy, programmes and projects. The publication contains a list of case studies.

- 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
- Analysis of the demographic situation of the European Union (EU-28). Statistics show that the EU population is stagnating and it is expected to decline in the longer term. While the EU population is ageing as life expectancy increases, fertility rates are lower than in the past. This has serious implications for the economy, healthcare and pensions. Free movement within the EU and migration from third countries also play an important role in shaping demography in individual member states and regions. .The 'in-focus' section of the 2020 edition looks at the relationship between food and nutrition and demographic changes. It shows that, however food quality and healthier eating habits lead to higher life expectancy, the EU has to deal with and prevent the causes of diet-related chronic conditions, such as obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

- Description
- De Prevalentiemonitor Huiselijk Geweld en Seksueel Geweld (PHGSG) beschrijft de aard en de mate waarin huiselijk geweld en seksueel geweld in Nederland voorkomen in de periode maart/april 2019 tot maart/april 2020.

Het slachtofferschap staat centraal. Daarnaast komt ook aan de orde in welke mate dit slachtofferschap een structureel karakter heeft, wie de plegers zijn, wat de gevolgen voor de slachtoffers zijn, en met wie de slachtoffers over hun ervaringen hebben gepraat. Het slachtofferschap is uitgesplitst naar relevante kenmerken van respondenten zoals de persoonskenmerken geslacht, leeftijd, seksuele oriëntatie en migratieachtergrond, en achtergrondkenmerken zoals de positie van de persoon in het huishouden, het hebben van kinderen en het aantal kinderen, het welvaartsniveau van het huishouden en de stedelijkheid van de gemeente.

- 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
- 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.

Human Rights Watch documented cases of women and girls who have, since then, encountered several barriers to access legal abortion and post-abortion care. The barriers include arbitrarily imposed gestational limits, lack of access to and availability of abortion methods, fear of criminal prosecution, stigmatization and mistreatment by health professionals. It provides several government recommendations.

- Description
- The topic of work-life balance affects both women and men and is a top priority for the EU. This is why it was chosen as this year’s thematic focus of the Index. In the private sphere, the unequal sharing of cleaning, cooking and caring responsibilities has hardly changed. The bulk of this unpaid work continues to fall on women. That makes it harder for them to juggle work and personal life, which impacts on their earning potential and the well-being of the women themselves and the people closest to them.
