August 19, 2020 @ 8:30 am - 10:30 am UTC-5

Special Announcement from the Interagency Gender Working Group

Learn about the gendered impact of COVID-19 on caregivers and health care workers; discuss new interventions, research, and tools for advancing gender equality in global health and other sectors; and connect with colleagues in the global gender community. Event registration details will be provided later.

In addition, the Interagency Gender Working Group (IGWG) invites members to send us your presentation ideas on one or more of the following topics:

  • Have you observed any changes in household gender relations due to COVID-19?
  • What is the gendered impact of COVID-19 on the health care system and what solutions have emerged?
  • Can you share work unrelated to COVID-19 that would be of interest to the IGWG community? Any innovative solutions or promising approaches to advance gender equality?

If you are interested in giving a brief presentation during the event, please apply. The application deadline is Wednesday, June 10, 2020. We strongly encourage members working in the field to apply.

Any questions or inquiries? Please get in touch with the IGWG team at igwg@prb.org.
