CNN - Téléchargeable sous format: PdF ![]() Téléchargeable chez l'éditeur ![]() Abstract: Of the many indirect consequences of Covid-19, growing gender inequality is an area of grave concern where the world is falling grievously behind. While women labor at the frontlines, comprising 70% of the world's healthcare workers, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), they are also leaving the workforce at a much higher rate than men, and doing over three-quarters of all unpaid care work, including the care of children. Improving access to water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) is not only the right thing to do -- it's what women want. In a survey of over 1.2 million women and children in 114 countries, improved access to WASH was listed as the second highest demand in maternal and reproductive care.
