UN WOMEN USA-THE IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON WOMEN AND GIRLS



Did you know? 

  • Women are 70% of health and social workers globally.

  • Women are more likely to lose an income.

  • Women who are displaced, refugees or migrant workers are particularly vulnerable in a pandemic.

  • In quarantine, domestic violence and sexual exploitation have risen. Access to justice is disrupted.

  • Women do 3x the unpaid care work compared to men.

  • Women’s health and education must not be put on hold.


UN Women is a voice for all women during this crisis, including health care workers, care providers, refugees and the displaced.
