Les impacts de la COVID-19 sur les stratégies de survie des femmes en situation d'itinérance

Kozel, Josée-Anne 07 1900 (has links)
La pandémie de la COVID-19 a eu des impacts sur tout un chacun. Or, force est de constater que certains groupes ont été plus durement touchés que d’autres. À cet effet, les femmes en situation d’itinérance représentent une population dont la recherche fait peu état de leur situation alors qu’elles sont extrêmement vulnérables et encore plus en temps de pandémie (Schiff, J.W., Pauly, B. et Schiff, P, 2016). Ce mémoire souhaite étudier les impacts de la COVID-19 sur le quotidien des femmes en situation d’itinérance à Montréal. Comment est-ce que l’imposition des mesures sanitaires a-t-elle été vécue ? Quelles en sont les répercussions ? Les données recueillies proviennent de la recherche : La réorganisation des services institutionnels et communautaires auprès des personnes en situation d’itinérance et les besoins des personnes en situation d’itinérance pour faire face à la pandémie de COVID-19. Une quinzaine d’entrevue semi-dirigées ont été réalisées auprès de femmes vivant une situation d’itinérance durant les périodes de l’automne 2020 et de l’hiver 2021. Les résultats ont par la suite été analysés dans une perspective féministe intersectionnelle par l’utilisation de l’analyse différenciée selon le sexe de même que la théorie de l’intersectionnalité. Les résultats de ce mémoire démontrent que l’imposition des mesures sanitaires a entraîné des conséquences négatives sur le quotidien des femmes en situation d’itinérance. Elles ont vu leur capacité à répondre à leurs besoins de base diminué jusqu’à parfois disparaitre. Le confinement, le couvre-feu ainsi que la fermeture des services non-essentielles ont aussi forcé une visibilité du phénomène de l’itinérance au féminin. Par ailleurs, la charge émotive de ces femmes s’est alourdie. Malgré toutes ces intempéries, celles-ci ont fait preuve d’une grande résilience et d’une capacité d’adaptation inouïe. En sus, les résultats démontrent qu’il y a eu un manque flagrant de considération de la part du gouvernement du Québec envers la situation spécifique des femmes en situation d’itinérance lors de l’imposition des mesures sanitaires. Cette absence de considération est venue brimer plusieurs de leurs droits fondamentaux impunément. Ce mémoire démontre les lacunes étatiques lors d’une crise sanitaire et proposent des pistes d’action pouvant y remédier. / The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted everyone. However, it is clear that some groups have been more severely affected than others. In this regard, women living on the streets represent a population whose situation is not well documented in research, even though they are extremely vulnerable, and even more so during a pandemic (Schiff, J.W., Pauly, B. et Schiff, P, 2016). This thesis aims to study the impacts of COVID-19 on the daily lives of women experiencing homelessness in Montreal. How was the imposition of the health measures experienced? What are the repercussions? The data collected is drawn from the research titled La réorganisation des services institutionnels et communautaires auprès des personnes en situation d’itinérance et les besoins des personnes en situation d’itinérance pour faire face à la pandémie de COVID-19. Fifteen semi-structured interviews were conducted with women experiencing homelessness during the fall of 2020 and winter of 2021. The results were then analyzed from an intersectional feminist perspective using gender-based analysis. The results of this thesis demonstrate that the imposition of COVID-19 restrictions has had a negative impact on the daily lives of women experiencing homelessness. They have seen their ability to meet their basic needs diminish and sometimes disappear. Confinement, curfews and the closing of non-essential services have also forced the visibility of homelessness on women. In addition, the emotional burden of these women has increased. Despite all the bad circumstances, they showed great resilience and an incredible capacity to adapt. In addition, the results show that there was a flagrant lack of consideration by the provincial government for the specific situation of women experiencing homelessness when imposing health measures. This lack of consideration has led to the violation of many of their fundamental rights with a lack of accountability. This thesis demonstrates the state's shortcomings during a public health crisis and proposes possible courses of action to address these deficiencies.

Not Small Technicalities: Gender's Impact on Choosing Careers in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics

Romano, Gina Gabriele 13 October 2010 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / This exploratory study looks at the underrepresentation of certain groups, especially women, in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) occupations. Using longitudinal data, it investigates the impact of math and technical abilities as well as social status measures such as sex, race/ethnicity and household income on STEM career choice, arguing that social status variables have an important influence apart from abilities, with an emphasis on gender. Results show significant impacts of sex, race/ethnicity, income and both math and technical skills on STEM career choice; however, only sex, math and technical skill have statistically significant impacts when controlling for all other variables, with technical skill having the strongest impact in all tests. Implications of these findings are discussed, confirming previous studies but also setting the groundwork for inclusion of technical skill in research on STEM areas. Future efforts are argued to focus on technical ability, as well as gender and mathematical adroitness.
