- This 2020 edition assesses the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the structural obstacles in its realization. It reveals the features of the COVID-19 emergency and its relations with other crises, including increased job loss, hunger and homelessness, increasing racial and gender violence and escalating climate disasters.. .The first part of the report, based on national civil society reports, describes how COVID-19 and resulting lockdown has affected countries in different ways, depending on their social and economic circumstances. The second part describes how governments and international organizations have responded to the economic and health crises resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The third part argues that policy responses to COVID-19 must not repeat the mistakes of the past, offering an alternative agenda for transformational recovery.

- 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
- This report assesses the scientific productivity of women regarding scholarly journals. This study analyzes whether factors such as working, caring and teaching children at home during the COVID-19 pandemic influenced the productivity of female academics. It looked at submitted manuscripts and peer review activities for all Elsevier journals between February and May 2018-2020, including data on almost 6 million academics. Results showed that women submitted relatively fewer manuscripts than men during the COVID-19 lockdown months. The findings indicate that the pandemic has already created cumulative advantages for men.

- Description
- The Gender Equality Index is a tool to measure the progress of gender equality in the EU, developed by EIGE. It gives more visibility to areas that need improvement and ultimately supports policy makers to design more effective gender equality measures.
The Gender Equality Index has tracked the painfully slow progress of gender equality in the EU since 2010, mostly due to advances in decision-making. While equality is more pronounced in some Member States than in others, it is far from a reality for everyone in every area. Gender norms around care, gender segregation in education and the labour market, and gender inequalities in pay remain pertinent.
The Index allows Member States to easily monitor and compare gender equality progress across various groups of women and men in the EU over time and to understand where improvements are most needed. The 2022 Index has a thematic focus on care in the pandemic. It explores the division of informal childcare, long-term care and housework between women and men.
