Cyber Violence in Intimate Relationships
Извор: WUNRN – 21.12.2020
By using cyber violence, abusive men
- seem omnipotent and omnipresent to their partner,
- control every aspect of their partner’s life,
- have constant access to their victims,
- make it increasingly difficult for survivors to leave the abuse behind,
- continue abusing their victims after the end of the relationship, and
- ruin victims’ livelihoods, reputations and steal their sense of safety.

DEFINING THE PRACTICES THAT HARM WOMEN & GIRLS & UNDERMINE EQUALITY
Human Rights & Gender Equality during Public Emergencies as the COVID-19 Pandemic
Извор: WUNRN – 08.12.2020
When emergency measures and #humanrights restrictions are gender-blind, women end up being harmed the most. ODIHR's new guide helps fill these gaps and prevent further discrimination.
In crisis situations, pre-existing patterns of discrimination, marginalization and vulnerability are exacerbated. Women and men, girls and boys experience the effects of the crisis itself, and of the extraordinary measures taken to counter it, in very different ways. Natural disasters, such as the devastating tsunamis, hurricanes and earthquakes of the past decade, have shown that women are at much higher risk of death from the immediate event, and also that their economic vulnerability increases in the aftermath.2 Distribution of relief aid often fails to consider gender differences, denying women access to key resources.
Men, Sex, Gender & COVID-19
Извор: WUNRN – 04.12.2020
Are men more at risk of infection?
Across the countries where data is available, Global Health 50/50 finds there is no consistent pattern in terms of who is more likely to be diagnosed with COVID-19. A confirmed diagnosis means that a laboratory test has been undertaken. In other words, globally there are almost equal numbers of infected cases amongst men and women. We have no evidence from these national survey data that men are more likely to become infected than women.
This pattern has also been seen in data collated by the World Health Organization, which shows that there is little difference in the reported numbers of confirmed cases in men and in women. Among over 700,000 confirmed cases of COVID-19 reported to WHO by April 18th 2020, there are almost equal numbers of cases in men and women (sex ratio of M:F cases = 1.03:1). The sex ratio varies with age. In both the younger (20-29 year old) and older (80 years and older) age groups, there are more cases in women than men.
