Coronavirus has drastically changed the way we all live our lives, but the crisis has affected women and men differently. Due to the roles women play in our society, women are facing particular risks related to coronavirus: of economic hardship and poverty, heightened exposure to the virus, struggling to balance care with work commitments, and of violence and abuse in lockdown. It is absolutely crucial that women’s experiences are understood and used to inform our response to this virus.
