It offers a typology of paid and unpaid, market and non-market work activities and how they are counted—or overlooked—in current systems of National Accounts, with implications of these gaps. In the past five years, a large portfolio of projects brings unpaid care provision to the center of research on gender and development, and raises important questions about the definition of economic development itself.application/pdfenUNPAID WORKCARE ECONOMYWOMEN'S ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENTSOUTH OF SAHARAGLOBAL SOUTHSOUTH ASIASOCIAL SAFETY NETSGENDER ROLESLABOUR POLICYECONOMIC REFORMSynthesis Report
