Push and Pull Factors in Women's Rural Employment in India Since Covid-19
The Covid-19 pandemic had a devastating impact on the world of work in India. It resulted in unprecedented job and income losses, reinforcing the adverse labour market situation of women. There was a significant contraction in demand as the crisis unfolded, and the effects of this contraction was exacerbated by an increase in the demand for unpaid care work as a result of business and school closures, and return migration. Return migration of wor…

Not All Good Is Care, Not All Evil Is Uncaring—A Political Comment on The Care Manifesto
This short comment focuses on The Care Manifesto's vision “to think of care as the organizing principle of each and every scale of life”. It challenges the construction of care as a universal, all-ecompasing concept, on conceptual and political grounds: naming everything good care and everything evil uncaring leaves us with too simplistic a picture of the problems at hand; and makes the necessary political alliances to move the care agenda forwar…
The Beijing Platform for Action charted a future we still need to bring up
The Beijing Platform for Action (BPfA), written 25 years ago, is remarkable in its economic diagnostics, analytical framework, and policy prescriptions, which remain fully relevant today. In this article, we revisit the main economic problems identified by the BPfA: GDP growth, employment, care, and poverty. In terms of GDP growth, the BPfA was clear that not any type of growth would suffice, calling for sustainable development avant la lettre. I…

Efficiency and gender equality in growth theory
This article presents a general critique of win-win arguments that pair gender equality and economic growth. Reviewing the “growth is good for women” and “gender equality is good for growth” arguments, the article argues that the win-win conclusions are contingent on particular notions of gender equality, measurement of output, work, well-being and policy. More importantly, these arguments also constrain the quest for substantive gender equality …
The rights‐based approach to care policies
Care policies are high on the public policy agenda in Latin America. This is partly explained by the region's structural conditions, typical of middle‐income countries, such as increasing life expectancy and women's relatively high participation in the labour market, but also by the politicization of care, derived from the recognition that the unequal distribution of care provision is a powerful driver of gender and income inequalities. Women's m…
Gender and the Sustainable Development Goals
Experts in the management of otitis media and the Drug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae Therapeutic Working Group were convened by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to respond to changes in antimicrobial susceptibility among pneumococci. The objective was to provide consensus recommendations for the management of acute otitis media (AOM) and for the surveillance of drug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae. After summarizing publishe…
Power and the Sustainable Development Goals
This article offers a power analysis of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) process and outcomes, from a feminist perspective. Many see, in the SDGs, several opportunities for progress on gender equality and women's rights, if not for transformation. Yet there are many reasons for scepticism, as the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development's vision is not always met with strong enough language, clear policies or funding provisions. Realising …
What is a transformative approach to care, and why do we need it
The meanings of care are contested – the approaches to care in the development and feminist literature have varied greatly. At the same time, care is a common word, loaded with moral meanings concerning notions of duty and love, and care is commonly associated with women. These associations are not innocent; they have concrete effects in shaping different policy agendas and institutional responses to care and care work. While the feminist meaning…
Democratic Care Politics in an Age of Limits
Sixteen Years after Beijing
This study takes stock of how advocacy for time-use surveys (TUS) has been framed since the 1995 Beijing Platform for Action, which urged countries to regularly conduct TUS in order to quantify unpaid care work, and how conducive the call for action has been for the effective use of this data to inform gender-sensitive policy. Findings suggest that obstacles to progress in using time-use data to inform policy include: an overemphasis on accountin…

Explorations
Time-use surveys show how individuals spend their time during the day or week, which provides evidence of the gendered division of labor within households and the interdependence of women's and men's paid and unpaid work. Time-use experts in the South face similar challenges to those working in other countries, but they also have to come to terms with the restrictions faced in less developed contexts – notably higher illiteracy rates and limited …
