Executive Summary
This report examines the impact on Women, Peace and Security (WPS) practitioners – broadly women’s rights organisations and advocates working across multiple sectors: human rights, research, humanitarian, governance, sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR), security and protection, economic development, law/justice and other fields. Based on survey data collected through the “Online Survey Women’s Rights Practitioners in Indo-Pacific region on needs, priorities and concerns as a result of COVID-19”, conducted between 24 April and 11 May 2020, the report analyses information from WPS practitioners on the frontlines to identify the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their work and organisations.
