June 2021was similar to the pre-pandemic levels (Feb 2020).
However, 13.5 percent of those who had a job before the
pandemic started, have lost their job by June 2021.Women and
low skilled workers were the most affected. Food insecurity
has doubled when compared with pre pandemic levels and has
not improved with respect to May 2020. School-age children
were mainly attending virtual classes, but 5 percent were
not attending presential or virtual classes. Household
chores increased disproportionally for women. The increase
on time spent in education and schoolwork help to children
is the highest of the region. Reported mental health impacts
are among the highest in the region, particularly for women. |
