The Global Alliance for Care is leading and supporting a series of events in the framework of the 69th Session of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW69).
The sixth edition of the World Forum on Local Economic Development (VI WFLED) will be held from 1 to 4 April 205 in Seville, Spain.
The session will address gaps in the current discourse on care. It will bring together a diverse group of women to develop collaborative strategies for rights-based, gender- and disability-sensitive solutions in reshaping care and support systems.
In Mexico, 31.7 million people aged 15 and over provide care in the home, three-quarters of whom are women.
The participation rate of women in the labor market drops from 56.6% to 50.3% when they have to care for infants or people with disabilities.
The United Nations General Assembly adopted in September 2024 the Pact for the Future, an intergovernmental agreement containing a series of commitments to address current and future challenges.
The purpose of this meeting is to report on the progress and challenges of the care agenda in Mexico based on dialogue and the exchange of experiences among decision-makers and public policymakers, as well as representatives of civil society.
