Women in the informal economy have borne the brunt of the COVID-19 pandemic due to a variety of factors, including the increased burden of care work, loss of livelihoods and continuing economic uncertainty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this context, the webinar titled \u2018Rebuilding an Inclusive World in the Wake of the Pandemic: Women Cooperatives Lead the Way\u2019was hosted by SEWA Cooperative Federation, WIEGO and the International Cooperative Alliance-Asia-and-Pacific (ICA-AP) in honour of Cooperative Week in India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The webinar was an opportunity for women cooperators, practitioners and thought-leaders from the social and solidarity economy to come together, understand and brainstorm solutions to the challenges faced by women in the informal economy during the COVID-19 pandemic and associated lock downs that had serious impact on informal workers world wide over the past two years<\/p>\n\n\n\n
