Governments can ensure that their regulatory measures during times of crisis do not disproportionately impact marginalized communities by conducting thorough impact assessments to understand the potential effects on different social groups. They can also actively involve marginalized communities in the decision-making process to ensure their voices are heard and their needs are considered. Additionally, governments can implement targeted support programs and resources to address the specific challenges faced by marginalized communities during times of crisis. Lastly, transparency and accountability in the implementation of regulatory measures can help prevent further exacerbation of existing inequalities in society.
