The Global Alliance for Care will hold an event called ‘The Relevance of Care Work for Gender Equality,’ in an effort to shed light on the crucial role care systems play in social, labor, environmental and economic policies.
It will feature a discussion on how Global Alliance for Care can promote care systems to bring about transformative change for gender equality and a sustainable future for everyone.
A number of panelists will illustrate the relevance of sustainable care systems to tackle the issue of climate change and build resilient societies.
