Beyond Recovery
Towards a gender-just recovery
Beyond Recovery is working to support and advance a gender-just recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. The project’s goals are to document and analyze women’s experiences, with a particular focus on marginalized women in hard-hit sectors, and to provide evidence-based policy solutions. This project has been funded in part by Women and Gender Equality Canada.
