Learn about the responses taken by governments worldwide to tackle the pandemic, including those that have integrated a gender lens. This tracker captures two types of government responses: women’s participation in COVID-19 task forces and national policy measures taken by governments. It analyses which of the policy measures address women’s economic and social security, including unpaid care work, the labour market, and violence against women. The tracker can provide guidance for policymakers and evidence for advocates to ensure a gender-sensitive COVID-19 policy response.
