| description | The health crisis caused by the expansion of the covid-19 highlights the consequences of the commodification of the public and the market as a regulating axis of life and human relations on common life. The current context demonstrated the chain of inequities faced by women in the region, and it was possible to identify at least three dimensions where those inequalities were expressed: care, work and violence. This article studies the impact of the pandemic on these three dimensions, seeking to contribute to a reflection-for-action practice that allows us to rethink a post-pandemic world, where the gender perspective is not constituted as a conjunctural agenda but as a fundamental element in the transformation of our societies. This article is mainly descriptive, analyzing secondary data information —mainly quantitative— from different secondary sources. In other words, this article implies data collected, processed, analyzed, and published with a different purpose than the objectives of this paper. The main sources of information have been: UN, ILO, ECLAC, UN WOMEN, UNESCO and UNHCR.

La crisis sanitaria ocasionada por la expansión del Covid-19 pone en evidencia las consecuencias que tiene sobre la vida común la mercantilización de lo público y el mercado como eje regulador de la vida y de las relaciones humanas. El contexto actual demostró la cadena de inequidades que enfrentan las mujeres en la región, pudiendo identificarse al menos tres dimensiones en las que se expresa esta desigualdad: los cuidados, el trabajo y la violencia. Es menester de este artículo realizar un estudio del impacto de la pandemia en estas tres dimensiones, buscando aportar a la reflexión para la acción que permita repensar un mundo pospandemia, donde la perspectiva de género no se constituya como una agenda coyuntural de los gobiernos, sino como un elemento fundamental en la transformación de nuestras sociedades. Este artículo es fundamentalmente descriptivo, utilizando para su análisis la información de datos secundarios, principalmente cuantitativos, de diferentes fuentes de información; por tanto se trata de datos recolectados, procesados, analizados y publicados con propósito diferente a los objetivos de este artículo. Las principales fuentes de información han sido ONU, OIT, CEPAL, ONU MUJERES, UNESCO y ACNUR. A crise da saúde causada pela expansão do covid-19 destaca as conseqüências da mercantilização do público e do mercado como eixo regulador da vida e das relações humanas na vida comum. O contexto atual demonstrou a cadeia de iniqüidades enfrentadas pelas mulheres na região, podendo identificar pelo menos três dimensões nas quais essa desigualdade se expressa: cuidado, trabalho e violência. Este artigo estuda o impacto da pandemia nessas três dimensões, buscando contribuir com a reflexão para a ação que nos permite repensar um mundo pós-pandemia, onde a perspectiva de gênero não se constitui como agenda conjuntural, mas como elemento fundamental da transformação das nossas sociedades. Este artigo é principalmente descritivo, analisando informações de dados secundários - principalmente quantitativos - de diferentes fontes secundárias. Em outras palavras, este artigo implica em dados coletados, processados, analisados e publicados com uma finalidade diferente dos objetivos deste artigo. As principais fontes de informação foram: ONU, OIT, CEPAL, MULHERES DA ONU, UNESCO, ACNUR.
