INTERNATIONAL DAY OF CARE AND SUPPORT: TAKE CARE OF THOSE WHO CARE

The International Day of Care and Support is dedicated to individuals in care work, both paid and unpaid. This day brings attention to the silent pillars of society whose labor sustains us all by either feeding a child, caring for the elderly, or managing household’s needs. Care work occupies a vital position in the global division of labor, as well as within the frameworks of families and communities,’ and contributes immensely to the well-functioning of our societies and of the world at large.
