May 23, 2024

Unpaid care and domestic work (UCDW) is performed around the world disproportionately by women and girls. Oxfam is committed to alleviating this burden of unpaid care and domestic work and to elevating the discourse on the value of UCDW’s contribution to society. As part of its continuing efforts to contribute to enhanced public policy around UCDW, Oxfam partnered with the University of Notre Dame Keough School of Global Affairs’ Integration Lab (i-Lab) to conduct a pilot study and populate Oxfam’s Care Policy Scorecard in the Philippines in order to determine milestones and gaps in the country’s unpaid care policy landscape.
