About the research
Our research uses a feminist intersectional lens that acknowledges the existence of multiple markers of difference as well as vulnerability to explore the range of actors involved in the response to COVID-19 and its multi-dimensional impacts on citizens in Burkina Faso and Ghana. Our work is based on the premise that responses to COVID-19, and whether or not they reach the targeted populations, are dependent on political/historical context and the range of socio-economic/socio political crises confronting a state prior to the onset of the pandemic.
