World Economic Forum’s Global Gender Gap Report reveals that gender parity in the world stands at 68.6 percent. The disturbing fact is that out of 158 countries, Pakistan stands at 151 st ( i.e., among the worst 10 performers). It can be argued that with structurally endorsed gender-based violence (GBV), being a girl or a woman was never easy in Pakistan. However, Covid-19 has further aggravated this situation. GBV in Pakistan prevails across cultures, economic status and ethnicity. Besides its health effects, Covid-19 has resulted in an economic strain with millions of women out of jobs, and much more helplessly trying to cope with a decline in their family income. Economic vulnerabilities weaken women’s position in society and make them further vulnerable to domestic violence, rape, workplace harassment, abuse and psychological health issues.
