Women have lost jobs faster than men during COVID19, but are getting less assistance

New economic research emerging in the wake of COVID-19, demonstrates that women continue to suffer greater disadvantage in relation to part-time and ongoing employment opportunities due to additional caring responsibilities in the home 😔

Women have the right to feel as valued and financially independent as their male counterparts ✊
