Unpaid care work and women's human rights 2013, para. 95
Paragraph
Paragraph text
For the poorest women, accessible, gender-sensitive public services are the most direct and effective way to redistribute their heavy unpaid care workload and reduce its drudgery and intensity. This can have a direct impact on their enjoyment of human rights, and the rights of those they care for. In many contexts, the provision of such services is a matter of great urgency.
Legal status
Non-negotiated soft law
