In the time of COVID-19 Pandemic crisis, single mothers and widows were and still constrained with a lot of challenges in this time of health, economic and social crisis including foods and nutrition insecurity, income poverty and homelessness due to that single mothers and widows can't afford to buy nutritionally balanced foods, temporary jobs stopped, unable to pay amounting house renting bills since the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic.



Food security and Nutrition balanced meals. Covid-19 pandemic brought so many complications not limited to economical crisis, food insecurity, and lacking nutrition-balanced meals to cook and eat/put in their tummy. Economical crisis inflicted led to food insecurity and poor nourishment particularly in urban areas due to vulnerable and underserved communities women and kids and people with disabilities (PWDs) are more at risk than we can imagine. Decent Housing, Decent Home is also a health urgent need which would be forgotten due to the economical crisis caused by Covid-19. As two days ago I meet with a youth widowed mother crying along with the read "when I talked to her she explained a lot of challenges she is facing including her landlord wanting sleep with her to clear amounted unpaid rental bills. Most of poorer people women and children wouldn't even think of finding unfinished buildings to sleep in, they are /will be sleeping in drift ridges, culverts, market places, shop and well-off corridors, bus stands, big trees, caves and etc. These are two healthy themes that need urgent intervention to contain the spreading of the pandemic, recovery, and relief aftermaths.
