Gender Justice at the Heart of New Mexico’s Pandemic Recovery

***Para la versión en español del informe, ver más abajo.

Why does the COVID-19 pandemic need a gender justice response and recovery plan, and what does that currently look like across New Mexico? Our 2020 report, Gender Justice at the Heart of New Mexico’s Pandemic Recovery, answers this question as it outlines a gender justice response to the pandemic and key recommendations for recovery. The report is informed by over 30 grantee and community partners around the state, our previous research, and recent findings from across the country.

The Heart of Gender Justice: Intersectionality, Economic Security, and Health Equity

***Para la versión en español del informe, ver más abajo.

In 2017, NewMexicoWomen.Org published, The Heart of Gender Justice in New Mexico: Intersectionality, Economic Security, and Health Equity in collaboration with a multi-disciplinary research team of social policy scholars of color from the University of New Mexico. The team was led by Lisa Cacari Stone, PhD, in collaboration with Claudia Diaz Fuentes, PhD, Nancy Lopez, PhD, and NMW.O’s staff.

The two-part series includes a qualitative report from community dialogues and a quantitative  analysis on the link between economic security and women’s health status by race and ethnicity. The project identifies priority areas and centers the stories of self-identified New Mexican women and their lived experiences around health equity and economic security. Using both community voices and data, the reports seek to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the intersectional nature of women’s lives in New Mexico.

Indicators Report: A Statistical Resource Guide to Women and Girls in New Mexico

In 2014, NewMexicoWomen.Org (NMW.O) published the Indicators Report: A Statistic Resource Guide to Women and Girls in New Mexico, which contains an overview of the quality of life indicators for women and girls in New Mexico. The research was published in response to the need for current demographic and statistical information about New Mexico’s women and girls. A statistical overview offers a baseline from which we can understand the connections between issues that impact women and girls. From this vantage point, communities, organizations, donors, and policymakers across the state can better identify and prioritize the needs of New Mexican women and girls.

For communities, it can help substantiate a call to action. For policymakers, donors and other funders, the report offers a snapshot of New Mexico to guide legislative and funding decisions. For other allies it serves as an educational tool.
