A Panel Celebrating the Publication of "The Routledge Companion to Gender and COVID-19"

The Routledge Companion to Gender and COVID-19, edited by BU Law faculty members Linda C. McClain and Aziza Ahmed, is a comprehensive research guide for researchers and students who seek to study and evaluate the complex relationship between gender and COVID-19. This interdisciplinary and intersectional volume shows how gender played a central role in shaping access to testing, treatment, and vaccines and deepened existing gender inequalities along the lines of race, class, sexuality, disability, and immigration status. Bringing together over sixty authors (including BU Law’s Naomi Mann) to investigate the pandemic’s impacts in different legal and political systems, the volume brings an intersectional lens to such topics as the pandemic’s impact on families, labor and employment, childcare and elder care, disability rights, human rights, political economy, political leadership, and sexual and reproductive health. BU Law celebrated the publication of this volume in a panel discussion with its editors, Linda C. McClain and Aziza Ahmed, and leading voices on public health, human rights, and reproductive rights and justice. The panel included two contributors to the volume, Professor Jacqueline Dugard and Professor Maya Manian, and commentator Professor Matiangai Sirleaf. This conversation was moderated by Associate Dean for Intellectual Life, Jessica Silbey.
