One more time for the people in the back: when it comes to addressing a global health crisis—gender matters. A feminist response to the pandemic is an intersectional response.

Women make up less than 7 percent of world leaders. And yet, this small percentage has done a disproportionately great job at handling the pandemic - from Germany to Taiwan to New Zealand. There really ought to be more of them.

The crisis has exacerbated inequalities and gender-based violence for women in the Middle East (and globally). But it has also visibilized these issues, prevalent long before the pandemic—making them much harder to ignore.

It is indeed such situations of crisis that show us the cruelty of the patriarchal system and its institutional ramification. The abysmal failure of our states to protect women and curb gender based violence can no longer be hidden or excused. What the crisis has showed us is that feminist organ ...

There is a narrative circulating that the pandemic is some great equalizer. This couldn't be farther from the truth. While the virus itself may not discriminate, society does. And in moments of crisis, it is always marginalized communities that are hit the hardest.
