#FeministEconomies
These include undervaluing of women’s unpaid care and domestic work, and the pursuit of austerity policies that harm women, non-binary people and racialized communities. She calls for approaches that take account of such harms and advance regional ideas of progress. #BeyondGDP #FeministEconomies

In 2024, we invited leading feminist thinkers from around the world to share perspectives on why we must move move #BeyondGDP and what alternative measures need to address with illlustrations from Vidushi and Medhavini Yadav capturing feminist visions for a world beyond GDP. #FeministEconomies
