Exploring the Gendered Impacts of Covid-19 through Phone Surveys using the GCAN Framework

EXPLORING THE GENDERED IMPACTS OF COVID-19 THROUGH PHONE SURVEYS USING THE GCAN FRAMEWORK

by IFPRI | June 18, 2020

The GCAN Framework is a useful tool for identifying the potential impacts of Covid-19 on rural women. These impacts will be explored through phone surveys in Ghana, Nepal, Nigeria and Senegal. Two recent presentations by GCAN team member, Elizabeth Bryan, highlight these potential impacts, plans for the phone surveys, and potential challenges to reaching women over the phone.

Watch the presentation on “Gendered Impacts of Covid-19 in Developing Countries” to the Big Data Platform Community of Practice on socio-economic data (SED-CoP) at a webinar on “Harmonization of COVID-19 Phone Surveys in CGIAR” that took place on May 19, 2020. Another presentation to the Gender+FNS+Covid Working Group Meeting on June 10, 2020 further describes this ongoing research.
