Unpaid care and women’s empowerment : lessons from research and practice - policy brief
Goal 5 of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) includes recognizing and valuing unpaid care and domestic work. For more equitable conditions, women need decent work that reflects the value of care, including fair wages, and accommodations such as flexible working hours, parental leave benefits, and other social protections. Child care itself needs to be recognized as a vital professional service. This Growth and Economic Opportunities for Women (GrOW) policy brief reviews numerous studies and case studies drawn from research submissions that provide evidence for what works in transforming the care economy.
