PANDEMIENS KONSEKVENSER:
SÅRBARE GRUPPER

Utsatte grupper og minoriteter rammes ekstra hardt av pandemien. Dette omfatter blant annet kvinnelige aktivister, urfolkskvinner, etniske minoriteter, seksuelle minoriteter, eldre kvinner og kvinner med funksjonsnedsettelser.

Rapporter viser at utsatte grupper og minoriteter har flere utfordringer med mental helse som følge av pandemien. Kvinner i utsatte grupper er også ytterligere utsatt for vold og digitale trusler. Blant annet har kvinner med funksjonsnedsettelser 3,5 større sjanse for å dø av covid-19, og er samtidig mye mer utsatt for partnervold.
