Zusammenfassung
The feminization, invisibilization, and undervaluation of care work are three factors that contribute in major ways to the precarity of women’s lives and livelihoods. In order to counter limitations imposed by gender roles that reproduce inequalities between men and women, we must advocate for fair policies that seek to challenge the rigid division between the “public” and “private” spheres. This policy brief goes over this division as it operates in current understandings of care work in the MENA region, and as it informs social protection design. The brief also offers recommended measures that strive for gender equity and the fair valuation of care work as a social and public issue.
