An interactive discussion on strategic and practical considerations of mainstreaming gender in international assistance efforts addressing the current global pandemic. Women, girls, and already marginalized groups are disproportionately impacted by the current global pandemic, which is exacerbating the existing inequalities and access to vital gender-responsive services. To discuss strategic and practical avenues for addressing this ‘shadow pandemic’ this webinar will convene civil society and Government experts.
