The socio-economic governance of the EU has been seen as a critical juncture for gender equality at the EU-level as well as in member states. How are the policies of EU socio-economic governance and the knowledge underpinning them gendered, and with what outcomes for gender equality? What kind of political struggles underpin these policies? The Covid-19 crisis and the EU Recovery and Resilience Facility mark a shift in governance processes as well as content. What role does gender have in the Facility?
