All over the world, some groups struggle to make ends meet with little daily income, have poorer housing conditions and education, fewer employment opportunities, experience greater gender inequality, and have little or no access to safe environments, clean water, and air, food security, and health services. This leads to unnecessary suffering, avoidable illness, and premature death. And it harms our societies and economies.Jagran School of Public Policy and International Affairs (JSPPIA) at Jagran Lakecity University, in association with the MASH Global invited students to write a 800-1000 words article, Highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on the vulnerable communities in your city, state or country and suggest recommendations to their policymakers on how to reduce these inequalities and ensure that everyone has living and working conditions that are conducive to good health.
