  • Educação digital, pandemia e desigualdades de género
    Publication . Rosa, Rosário; Vieira, Cristina Pereira
    A proposta deste capítulo é refletir sobre o papel da educação no combate às desigualdades e no empoderamento das mulheres, cruzando-a com algumas das desigualdades de género estruturais que continuam a afetar a vida das mulheres em Portugal. Daremos ainda destaque ao contexto de crise gerado pela pandemia da Covid-19, e às consequentes transformações ocorridas no ensino, que trouxeram a público alguns dos constrangimentos e potencialidades da educação digital, contribuindo para o debate sobre o papel deste tipo de educação no empoderamento das mulheres.
  • Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the lives of women with different socioeconomic backgrounds and victimization experiences in Portugal
    Publication . Teixeira, Ana Lúcia; Cerejo, Dalila; Rosa, Rosário; Lisboa, Manuel
    The heavy economic, social, and psychological toll of pandemic lockdowns around the world and their disproportionate effect on women are widely acknowledged, but different socioeconomic backgrounds and contexts may influence the degree to which stay-at-home measures impact their lives. Additionally, knowing that violence against women tends to increase during times of crisis, we are testing if the additional burden of victimization represents an added load to the perceived social impacts of the lockdown. Using 2021 survey data from a random sample of 1541 Portuguese women, the paper explores, through logistic regression models, the social impact of the lockdown on the lives of women, its socioeconomic determinants, and the role played by violence against women during the pandemic. The results show that the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown did not equally affect all facets of women’s social lives, and women with higher education status and that experienced income reductions due to the measures taken to control the pandemic are more prone to experience a more severe negative impact of the lockdown on the various facets of their lives. Additionally, having been a victim during the pandemic partially mediates the effect of education and income reduction on the social outcomes of the lockdown.
