dc.description.abstractThe inequalities women face are not new, but the pandemic has exacerbated and laid them bare. This brief calls for action in three areas: 1) Governments must ramp up investment in gender-responsive public services 2) Governments must increase public and private financing for the child care sector and enhance income support for both centre-based and domestic childcare workers 3) Effective policy will include promoting dialogue with childcare workers and strengthening their rights. The evidence and analysis include some national programmes which have been implemented during the pandemic (July 2020- February 2021).en
