Usaha Kreatif Perempuan dalam Turbulensi Pandemi: Riset Longitudinal Wirausaha Industri Kreatif Perempuan 2018-2020
Abstract
Penelitian ini melihat bagaimana bisnis kreatif perempuan sebelum dan selama pandemi dengan membandingkan fase 2018 dan fase 2020. Duapuluh wirausaha kreatif perempuan telah diwawancarai ditahun 2018 dan kembali diwawancarai ditahun 2020 untuk melihat bagaimanakah kelangsungan bisnis kreatif tersebut. Hampir separuh dari partisipan telah menghentikan bisnis kreatifnya dengan alasan ‘burnout’ atau kelelahan dengan tugas-tugas domestik yang semakin berat saat pandemi, terutama yang berkaitan dengan pengasuhan dan pendidikan anak-anak. Partisipan lain yang masih bertahan menyatakan bahwa omsetnya menurun drastis dengan perkecualian tiga partisipan yang didukung penuh oleh partner rumah tangganya. Riset ini membuktikan dua hal, pertama, ketimpangan dalam pembagian tugas-tugas domestik masih menjadi penghalang terbesar terhadap akses perempuan dalam dunia usaha dan karir profesional. Kedua, masih minimnya usaha-usaha pemerintah maupun insentif yang responsif terhadap gender membuktikan bahwa industri kreatif masih menjadi industri yang masih jauh dari kata sempurna dalam hal pengarusutamaan gender. Beberapa laporan menunjukkan setidaknya membutuhkan waktu enam tahun atau lebih untuk kembali meraih kemajuan-kemajuan pengarusutamaan gender yang telah direnggut selama pandemi.
