By using intersectional gender-based (GBA+) analysis, we can ensure post-pandemic recovery centres the communities most affected by this crisis. We need analysis on both the differential impacts of COVID-19 as well as when designing equitable policies, practices and programs. One of the most significant actions the government can take now is to mandate the collection of disaggregated data on the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic along these multiple dimensions of social identities. This data would allow policymakers to assess whether post-pandemic economic recovery policies are having intended effects, or if they are widening inequities. They could also allow policymakers to pivot programs and policies to better reduce inequities.
