268 years to close the economic gender gap? It is time to consider CARE as a human right
14.04.23
Care is at the heart of our advocacy work here at MMM, so we were delighted to have the opportunity to put forward our thoughts in this op-ed featured on the OECD Forum Network website.
It is a known fact that the Economic gender gap is directly linked to the Care Gap. We argue that a paradigm shift and profound structural changes are needed if we are to accelerate change.
In order to progress on Gender Equality and social sustainability, we must consider two concrete avenues: re-invent our economy to a wellbeing model centred on ‘Care’ in its broadest meaning. And recognize Care as a Human Right.
Can we really afford to wait 268 years to close the economic gender gap?
