Towards Resilient Livelihoods: Confronting Gendered Impacts of COVID-19

23/03/2021 @ 09:30 - 11:00

Towards Resilient Livelihoods, Food Security, and Nutrition for All: Confronting the Gendered Impacts of COVID-19

Watch online at IFPRI’s event page

Co-Organized by International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the World Bank

The COVID-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns continue to have devastating effects around the globe, including in rural areas of developing countries, where people have been affected by livelihood and supply disruptions, income shocks, and food and nutrition insecurity. While the overall impacts are becoming clear, less attention has been paid to the differential impacts on men and women and their ability to cope with the multiple shocks associated with the pandemic. For example, women tend to experience more lingering income shocks and have greater difficulty accessing food than men. Understanding these gender differences can offer important insights to decision-makers designing and implementing policies and programs aimed at providing much needed relief to the most vulnerable communities.

At this seminar, researchers from IFPRI, the World Bank, and the Center for Global Development will share insights from phone surveys in 7 countries on the gendered impacts of COVID-19, discuss operational entry points to mitigate negative gendered impacts, and highlight the extent to which policies and programs addressing COVID-19 incorporate a gender lens. Panelists will also discuss the challenges of learning about the impacts in real time, given difficulties in reaching rural women.
