Double jeopardy: The intersection of pandemic uncertainty and violence against women
Pandemic uncertainty has exacerbated violence against women, as lockdowns and economic stresses increase tensions in households and limit access to support services. Its heightened vulnerability underscores the immediate requirement for focused interventions and resources to protect and support affected women. This investigation explores the asymmetric association between pandemic-induced uncertainty and violence against women in ten selected nations (USA, India, South Africa, Brazil, Italy, Australia, Japan, Mexico, Turkey, and Egypt). While earlier studies utilized panel data approaches, this work uses a quantile-on-quantile approach, which supports an extensive exploration of the variables' correlations tailored to individual country settings. This approach enriches the precision of our findings while delivering a thorough global standpoint, exhibiting foresight relevant to the distinct properties of numerous countries. The results point out a positive linkage between pandemic uncertainty and violence against women across several quantiles in most of our chosen nations. These findings spotlight the necessity for policymakers to carry out meticulous estimations and originate robust tactics for monitoring changes in pandemic uncertainty and the prevalence of violence against women.
