“COVID-19, Gender and Human Rights” is a virtual gathering initiative spearheaded by the Raoul Wallenberg Institute of Human Rights and Humanitarian Law (RWI). The RWI, in collaboration with partners and researchers from Belarus, Cambodia, China, Ethiopia, Turkey and Zimbabwe, has recently launched a research initiative to analyse COVID-19’s gendered impacts on human rights.

This webinar aims to provide critical insights into the effects of the pandemic on women’s rights and discuss what should be done to better respond to gender inequalities and increased gender-based violence (GBV) and intersectional discrimination suffered by women in the context of COVID-19.
