The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted gender inequalities, increasing the amount of unpaid care weighing on women and girls, and the vulnerabilities faced by paid care workers, often women working informally. Using a global database on social protection responses to COVID-19 that focuses on social assistance, social insurance and labour market programmes, this article considers whether and how these responses have integrated care considerations. Findings indicate that, although many responses addressed at least one aspect of care (paid or unpaid), very few countries have addressed both types of care, prompting a discussion of the implications of current policy responses to COVID-19 (and beyond) through a care lens.
新冠疫情凸显了性别不平等问题,加重了妇女和女童无偿照护的负担,也凸显了有偿照护工作者(通常是非正规就业的女性)所面临的脆弱性。本文利用一个关于社会保护应对新冠疫情的全球数据库,该数据库聚焦于社会援助、社会保险和劳动力市场项目,探讨了这些应对措施是否以及如何纳入了照护考量。研究结果表明,尽管许多应对措施至少涉及了照护的一个方面(有偿或无偿),但很少有国家同时兼顾这两种照护类型,这引发了从照护视角对当前新冠疫情应对政策(及之后)的影响进行讨论。
