Beskrivelse:The objective of this research examines two aspects of the Latin American Alliance of Women with Disabilities (ALAMUD). First, the exercise of violence against women with disabilities in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic is addressed. Second, it explores possible opportunities for women with disabilities in the areas of employment, education and access to services, that arose during the pandemic. A semi-structured interview with leaders of the women's organization is used as a data collection technique. It is concluded that in Costa Rica, during the context of the pandemic, the levels of violence exercised against women with disabilities have increased, although prevailing forms of violence are the same as those that have been historically exercised against them. The study identified that are no significant opportunities in the fields of employment, education and access to services.
