Transforming cities through care
Imagine a world where care takes centre stage. A world where cities prioritize quality of life.
Care is about actions that support people's physical and emotional well-being.
It’s essential for everyone. We all require care at different stages of our lives—depending on our age, health and ability.
Care is the base of a fair society. But care work is often invisible, undervalued and unpaid.
Women dedicate at least 3 times more unpaid work than men
This imbalance not only perpetuates inequality and time poverty, but hampers women’s education, economic independence, opportunities and well-being.
