Risk Communication During COVID-19 Pandemic: Impacting Women in Bangladesh

Frontiers in Communication conducted a qualitative study among 37 women across Bangladesh that presents the risk communication factors related to social and financial challenges. It reveals that the majority of the urban communities lack communication with local authorities, where urban low-income communities are the worst sufferers. Due to that, the majority of the urban participants could not get financial support, whereas the rural participants received such support for having communications with local authorities during the COVID-19 pandemic.
