Efforts are being made to build the resilience of marginalised populations, particularly women, against the negative impacts of Covid-19. A press release said that the launching ceremony of “Gov-HER-Nance Initiative: Ensuring Gender Equity and Socio-Economic Resilience during Covid-19 in Pakistan” was organised at a hotel in Peshawar.

The Accountability Lab is implementing the project in selected districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in collaboration with the Health Department.
