Abstract: This article offers insight into how the commodification of public goods could affect women’s lives directly and indirectly through its impact on the family. It draws on the experience in Hong Kong of raising policy-makers’ and public sector administrators’ awareness of the importance of women's and families’ perspectives in policy practice at both the international and national level. The analysis is based on the Hong Kong government’s interventions during the Covid 19 pandemic. Its shows how the commodification of public goods can affect women and families and create more challenges for them during a global crisis. The article speaks to policy-makers and practitioners involved in policy design and implementation.
