How can the concept of gender knowledge explain the gendered nature of the European Recovery Fund “NextGenerationEU”?
(2022-08)
The Covid-19-pandemic reproduced many long-existing gender inequalities and created new ones: women are over-represented in underpaid sectors such as the health care sector and were faced with the double burden of paid and reproductive work in the household, when kindergartens closed.
