According to Ana Fontes, from RME, women and girls have been especially affected by the economic and social consequences of the pandemic. “The businesses led by these women have suffered drastic losses, since they are principally focused in sectors most affected during the pandemic, such as food, clothing, tourism and services,” explains Ana Fontes.
