The Covid-19 pandemic has not been kind to the people of the world. The virus, in its rampage has infected more than 77 million people and left 1.7 million bodies in its wake globally since its detection late last year.
As a result of this, people have been forced to stay home for long amounts of time; the economy has taken a nosedive with companies losing revenue, resulting in job losses. Amidst this pandemic, emerging data from the front lines have shown that violence against women and girls have significantly grown. Reports have shown an increase ranging from 10% to as high as 100% in reports coming from various countries during the pandemic. This is what is termed as the shadow pandemic -- a pandemic within the pandemic.
