The terrible impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have been felt around the world. For countries of the Global South, it has caused enormous setbacks, deepening pre-existing inequalities and exposing vulnerabilities in social, political and economic systems. While the virus can affect anyone indiscriminately, it does not affect everyone equally, debunking the myth that it is a universal equalizer.
Over the months of June and July, DAWN is organizing a series of talks with feminists from the Global South to discuss the profound implications of the pandemic, but also the extraordinary measures taken by States battling its consequences.
Join our upcoming #DAWNTalk with feminists from the Global South and let’s have a discussion on the role of biopolitics during the #COVID19 Pandemic.
