Abstract

Elaine Coburn, International Studies/Centre for Feminist Research, Glendon, and Gertrude Mianda, The Tubman Institute, will co-lead a team examining how gender influences the challenges that measures such as social distancing, closure of schools and travel restrictions pose to African immigrant men and women, and how policies and practices could change.
