A woman stands and helps her daughter wash vegetables in a sink. Text overlaid reads, "New report. How countries strive to move beyond GDP and capture the value of invisible work."
GDP misses a lot—including unpaid work usually done by women. 💪🚺
As the UN and Member States work to agree on metrics to go #beyondGDP and better report how countries are faring, work in the #careeconomy must be included

Digital illustration of a solemn young Black child standing outside a brick building holding a sign that reads, “they got money for WARS…” Faint text above the doorway behind the child reads, “but can’t feed the poor.” The image critiques government spending priorities, contrasting military funding with poverty and hunger.

Strikes exist to make the invisible visible: undervalued labor, moralized exhaustion, and risk pushed downward. The system we’re in is a choice—and choices can change.

Tertianum übernimmt Senevita und wird damit zum mit Abstand grössten Anbieter für Altenpflege in der Schweiz. Private Equity Gelder, tiefe Löhne und ein stark steigender Pflegebedarf lassen nichts Gutes für die Altersheime der Zukunft erahnen. #CareEconomy

When we defund care, we destabilize the foundation that makes all other work possible: domestic work. This is a sabotaging of the care infrastructure working families depend on. All at a time, when they face increased healthcare costs and cuts to Medicaid.
We need #CareNOTCuts! #CareEconomy

If we want women to thrive in the economy, we have to stop treating care as a private burden and start seeing it as infrastructure not an add on but a foundation #careEconomy
