Observatory on COVID-19 effects

on gender equality

In times of pandemic crisis, gender equality entered in a new phase of threat which may entail undeniable long-lasting effects. The Research Group anticipates important risks for women’s reproductive rights, for the respect of gender equality in the dynamics of house and children caring, for the protection of women from domestic violence.

Against this background, the Research Group puts in place the ‘Observatory on COVID-19 effects on gender equality’. Scholars, practitioners and activists willing to contribute in keeping the dialogue alive also in times of lock-down are invited to send small posts (1500-3000 words) in English, French or Spanish to vrscotti1@gmail.com.
