New WP with @livia_alfonsi and Mary Namubiru. We document the gendered effects of the Ugandan lockdowns on skilled workers. Women disproportionately lost their jobs and were shifted to unskilled sectors. The gender pay gap widened. Effects persisted for 18 months!

The existing architecture of gender quotas in municipal elections is insufficient to⬆️the % of female mayors. Should we think about dearth of female political leaders in the same way as we think of female careers more broadly in the labor mkt? Seems key to find solutions.

La statua appena inaugurata a #Sapri e dedicata alla #Spigolatrice è un’offesa alle donne e alla storia che dovrebbe celebrare. Ma come possono perfino le istituzioni accettare la rappresentazione della donna come corpo sessualizzato? Il maschilismo è uno dei mali dell'Italia.

@livia_alfonsi , Mary and I find that school closure affected disadvantaged students the most. Reopening must be accompanied by learning assessment & free remedial education. Thanks @GLMLIC @FCDOGovUK @brac_uganda for allowing us collecting evidence on this pivotal issue.
