    Description

    Investments which support households to better meet their unpaid care responsibilities - such as childcare, food preparation and laundry - can yield substantial returns in terms of macro-economic growth, job creation and other key government priorities. This briefing looks at selected evidence and examples and argues that governments should:

    • include commitments to support households' unpaid care work in relevant policies and programmes, and collect data on unpaid care to support policy making;
    • increase households' access to care-supporting infrastructure and services;
    • encourage men and boys to share care work; and
    • step up efforts to give women a real voice in policy making, and a real opportunity to speak out about unpaid care.

    Export search results

    The export button (to the right?) will allow you to export the search results of the entered query to a CSV file. To export the items, click the "Export" button.

    There are two options to select the items you want to export to a CSV. Either you export all results from a search query, or you select a subset of items from the search results.

    To select a subset of the search results, click "Selective Export" in the Export menu.

    After making a selection, click the 'CSV' button. The amount of items that will be exported is indicated in the bubble next to 'CSV'.

    The amount of items you can export is limited, but authenticating will increase this limit.
