The document focuses on the areas of decision-making, security and violence against women, women's care and economic rights, and women's health, with special emphasis on sexual and reproductive health. It also refers to groups that were vulnerable before the emergency and may now be at increased risk, as well as other actions that are essential to adequately address the crisis, such as the availability of gender-disaggregated data. In short, information is provided that supports the incorporation of women's needs in decision-making as a priority in the exceptional times we are living through.
