| Итог: | In this study, we use macro-CGE simulation and a theoretical model combined with econometric estimations to evaluate the gender-specific impact of the Russia-Ukraine war on the South African economy. We compute gender-differentiated equivalence scales to convert shared household consumption into its private equivalent to account for disparities in resource allocation. We analyse data from the National Income Dynamics Study 2017 to estimate changes in women’s employment, consumption, food poverty, lower and upper poverty bounds and income distribution. Our findings are five-fold: First, women accounted for 58 percent of jobs lost. Second, men’s per capita food spending fell by 0.81 percent while that of women by 1 percent. Third, more rural women were affected than rural men. Fourth, Coloured and Black African women were the most affected in terms of food poverty. Finally, inequality among rural women increased more than among rural men, while inequality in urban areas decreased for both genders.
