- Description
- Although this phenomenon is common all over the world, this paper will deal with the importance of making women’s unpaid work visible in India, as India is a developing country and more people tend to engage in unpaid subsistence work (production for self-consumption, unpaid work in family enterprises and care related work) in developing countries compared to wealthier countries. Portraying the importance and challenges of making women’s unpaid care work visible in India can trigger economic and social development of the country.
