Historically, epidemics and humanitarian crises have disproportionately impacted the most vulnerable, impacting mostly girls and women living in low-to-middle income countries. Entrenched inequalities in gender norms and access to education often leave young girls inadequately equipped to effectively protect themselves and their families during an outbreak. There is no exception now as the COVID-19 pandemic has yielded unintended consequences for both adolescent boys and girls. This quantitative research study explores adolescent boys’ and girls’ COVID-19 related perceptions of risk and related behaviors and challenges related to school closures almost one year after the start of the pandemic in India and Nepal. Males were more likely to report completing online/mobile learning and assignments provided by school, whereas females reported a higher percentage of studying with their own books, using other learning resources, or doing nothing while schools have been shut down. Girls were more likely to report wanting to return to school after the pandemic was over. Compared to girls, boys were more likely to report spending more time on household chores than they did before the pandemic. COVID-19 recovery efforts are imperative in alleviating the pandemic’s adverse consequences for adolescents’ education, health well-being, and gender inequities.
