摘要

新型冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行正在对全球生计、健康和总体福祉产生重大影响。本政策简报认为,在低收入国家(LICs),水、环境卫生和个人卫生(WASH)不安全状况普遍存在,并与贫困和其他脆弱性密切相关,COVID-19将对妇女和女孩产生特别严重的影响,因为她们在收集水、环境卫生、个人卫生和家庭福利方面承担着不成比例的负担,而这些责任根植于长期的社会文化规范中。WASH不安全性是指WASH访问中的物理和关系不平等。我们通过三个途径——生殖和围产期健康、文化规范和COVID-19感染风险以及身心健康——讨论了WASH的不安全将如何加剧COVID-19对低收入国家妇女和女孩的影响。

Water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) insecurity will exacerbate the toll of COVID-19 on women and girls in low-income countries
Abstract The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic is having a significant global impact on livelihoods, health, and general well-being. This policy brief argues that in low-income countries (LICs) where water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) insecurity is widespread and closely entangled with poverty and other vulnerabilities, COVID-19 will have a particularly devastating impact on women and girls because they bear the disproportionate burden of water collection, sanitation, hygiene, and family welfare ‒ responsibilities embedded in longstanding sociocultural norms. WASH insecurity refers to the physical and relational inequities in WASH access. Using three pathways ‒ reproductive and perinatal health, cultural norms and the risk of COVID-19 infections, and physical and mental health ‒ we discuss how WASH insecurity will worsen the impact of COVID-19 on women and girls in LICs.

期刊介绍: Sustainability: Science, Practice and Policy is a refereed, open-access journal which recognizes that climate change and other socio-environmental challenges require significant transformation of existing systems of consumption and production. Complex and diverse arrays of societal factors and institutions will in coming decades need to reconfigure agro-food systems, implement renewable energy sources, and reinvent housing, modes of mobility, and lifestyles for the current century and beyond. These innovations will need to be formulated in ways that enhance global equity, reduce unequal access to resources, and enable all people on the planet to lead flourishing lives within biophysical constraints. The journal seeks to advance scientific and political perspectives and to cultivate transdisciplinary discussions involving researchers, policy makers, civic entrepreneurs, and others. The ultimate objective is to encourage the design and deployment of both local experiments and system innovations that contribute to a more sustainable future by empowering individuals and organizations and facilitating processes of social learning.
