- Description
- Report of proceedings of an expert meeting on the migration of highly skilled women. It identifies research gaps related to the global challenges and opportunities of highly skilled women migration. Between 2000 and 2011, the number of highly educated female migrants in OECD countries rose by 80 per cent. One third (34%) come from Asia while the four leading destination countries are Canada, Israel, the United Kingdom and the United States. Many migration policies targeting the highly skilled are inadequate regarding their level of gender sensitivity. For example, some occupations are traditionally held by men. Highly skilled women are also less likely than men to return to their home countries for reasons such as reintegration obstacles in their origin countries and the negative environments to which they seek to return. Diaspora networks might help in promoting the engagement of female migrants in the development of origin countries.

- Description
- This report focuses on identifying what works to address unpaid care work regarding women in developing countries. Unpaid care work is usually carried out by women and can prevent their full economic participation. The report examines existing knowledge of policy options for unpaid care work across regions, in four policy areas: infrastructure, social protection, public services and promotion of shared responsibility within the household. To understand the different approaches to each of the four sectors, a global literature review and research visits were made to Brazil, Kenya and Nepal. The importance of addressing the burden of unpaid care work is recognised in Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 5 through adoption of Target 5.4: “Recognise and value unpaid care and domestic work”.
