Agriculture and the food sector are critical to food and nutrition security
because they not only produce food but also contribute to economic empowerment by
employing a large share of female and male workers, especially in developing
countries. Food systems at all levels-globally, domestically, locally, and in the
home- are expected to be highly affected by the COVID-19 crisis. Women and men
work as food producers, processors, and traders and will likely be impacted
differently. Shocks or crises can exacerbate or reduce gender gaps, and so can
policy responses to mitigate the impact of these crises or shocks. We offer some
perspectives and available country examples on how the COVID-19 crisis and
responses to the crisis could be a setback or offer opportunities for gender
equality in the food system.
