The UN IE on SOGI is aware of the global nature of the damage inflicted by the COVID-19 pandemic. At the same time, the crafting of efficient and effective solutions is connected to evidence-based understanding of the reasons why certain persons, communities or populations are at a disadvantage when facing its fallout and the impact of response or recovery measures taken by the State.
