COVID and the efforts to suppress it will have an alarming impact on the lives and rights of girls and young women. Already treated as second class citizens in many countries, they are least likely to return to school or find a new job, and most likely to suffer abuse and violence at home when the protective umbrella of education and care systems are no longer in place. At the end of March , some million girls are out of school and all over the world reports of domestic violence are already on the rise. Teenage pregnancies are also likely to increase as adolescent girls are sexually exploited and are forced to turn to risky strategies to feed themselves and their families. Plan International has been listening to what girls are saying about the reality of living under lockdown. They are feeling bored, frustrated, alarmed and frightened and they need clear information on the pandemic and support to deal with its impact on them and their families. To aid our understanding of the impact of COVID on girls and young women, as well as talking to girls in lockdown, Plan International has re-examined four previous studies of crises6 to try and get a clearer picture of the insecurity and vulnerability facing girls now. We have drawn specific lessons from our study of the Ebola crisis of in West Africa where school closures and other measures to limit movement had damaging long-term effects on children and particularly girls.

South Sudan has been named as the toughest nation in the world for girls to receive an education, with nearly three-quarters failing to attend even primary school, according to an index published this week. Nine of the top 10 most difficult nations for girls to be educated are in sub-Saharan Africa. Afghanistan, which has the highest level of gender disparity in primary school, is the only non-African country to make the list, ranking in fourth place. Some countries — including Somalia and Syria — could not be included on the list as they had insufficient data about girls and education rates. Although many school-age boys in conflict zones, including the 10 countries listed, often fail to attend class, in some nations the gender gap is particularly striking. Research shows that girls who are not educated are more at risk of poverty, child marriage, violence and prone to diseases, including HIV and Aids. In most of the 10 countries, more than half of girls are married before their 18th birthday, according to the report, and one in four are, on average, child labourers. But even in countries that spend a significant portion of their budget on education — including Ethiopia and Niger — factors such as extreme poverty, child marriage, and cultural and economic barriers still prevent girls from gaining an education.
