This document discusses the care economy in Australia from a gender perspective. It finds that in 2009-2010, women undertook 21.4 billion hours of unpaid care work equivalent to 11.1 million full-time positions. The imputed value of this unpaid care was $650.1 billion or 50.6% of GDP. Paid care work accounted for $112.4 billion and 1.8 million jobs. Both paid and unpaid care disproportionately burden women and contribute to the gender pay gap. The document calls for policies and services to better support and value both paid and unpaid care work.

this presentation is based on the unpaid care work done by women and the economic status of their work in india as well as thoroughout the world. I had made this presentation in order to present my paper titled "Unpaid Work -No economy for women (An analytical study for Valuation and recognition)" to present in the CURAJ NCW NATIONAL seminar-2018. I got the best paper award for this presentation in the seminar.
Unpaid care work is disproportionately performed by women and girls. It involves direct care for people as well as housework and volunteer work that facilitates care. Unpaid care work is invisible in policies and budgets, and its unequal distribution reinforces gender inequalities. The consequences of unpaid care work are detrimental to women's health, well-being, and basic human rights.
The solution is a 3Rs approach: 1) Recognize the value of unpaid care work through time use surveys and awareness campaigns. 2) Reduce the time spent on care work through infrastructure, technologies, and public services. 3) Redistribute unpaid care work from women to men and from families to governments through policies, healthcare access, and engaging

Overall, the document analyzes the need for women's empowerment in India and some challenges that still remain.
Nurses’ role in empowering smallholder women in developing countriesRobert Parolin
Smallholder women in developing countries face unique health and economic challenges. They make up the majority of farmers but have less access to resources and face increased risks of illness. Nurses can help empower smallholder women by supporting primary healthcare integrated with rural development, and by advocating for women's agricultural groups which improve access to resources, markets, and policy change. Working with these groups within a framework of rural development and primary healthcare can address the social determinants of health and livelihoods of smallholder women.
This presentation was part of the learn and share events held across the country in March, 2014.
The presentation was by Matt Hill, Institute of Volunteering Research and looks at what they have learnt from the research perspective.

Women are increasingly occupying jobs that were traditionally held by men. While women now make up over half the workforce and outnumber men in college degrees, a pay gap persists where women earn only 77 cents for every dollar earned by men. The document examines various jobs that have seen a decline in male workers as women take over, such as postal workers, educators, and veterinarians. It also explores reasons for the shifting job trends and continuing gender pay gap, such as effects of the recession, discrimination, and differences in hours and career choices between men and women.
1 Evolutionof Gender and Poverty Dynamics in Tanzania, Flora KessyThe Impact Initiative
1) The persistence of poverty in Tanzania despite economic growth is partly due to changing gender dynamics as traditional roles dissolve with new economic opportunities.
2) Men are migrating or moving into traditionally female crops and activities as cash crops decline, while responsibilities increasingly fall to women.
3) Rising costs are intensifying poverty as effectively and fully female-headed households struggle with lack of support and dispossession of assets, though some women organize support networks.
Women's labor can be a source of empowerment or exploitation depending on factors like gender, race, class, and location. While labor and human rights frameworks protect some rights, women still face issues like exclusion from certain jobs and industries, vulnerability in informal work, lower pay, and invisibility of unpaid care work. To address this, the document advocates for a decent work agenda that promotes employment, respects rights, enhances social protections, enables new forms of organizing, and increases public investment in services to redistribute women's unpaid domestic labor responsibilities. Achieving this requires mobilizing around goals like decent work and engaging institutions like the UN, ILO, and World Bank to strengthen protections for women's labor rights and transition to more just and feminist
CFPHD Guest Speaker Dr. Chisholm: Nursing Home Quality and Financial PerformanceCFPHD
This study examined the relationship between nursing homes' racial composition of residents and financial performance, and whether financial performance influenced the relationship between racial composition and quality of care. The results showed that nursing homes with no black residents had better financial outcomes and quality outcomes than homes with high proportions of black residents. Financial performance partially influenced the relationship between racial composition and quality. The study recommends increasing Medicaid payments to homes with many minority residents, implementing pay-for-performance programs, and addressing trends like residential segregation and occupancy rates.
Personal Support Workers (PSWs) - Foundation of Health Care Provision (Ontario)Kelly O'Sullivan
PSWs are increasingly a vital and fundamental part of the provision of health care in Ontario. This presentation provides an overview of who are PSWs, types of work and reasons for the expansion of workers in this profession.
Personal Support Workers (PSWs) provide up to 80% of direct care to older adults living in long-term care or at home. PSWs help with activities of daily living like bathing, dressing, and feeding. Their role has evolved with changes in the healthcare system focusing more on home and community care. There are approximately 100,000 PSWs in Ontario, over 90% are women and many are immigrants. Most PSWs work in long-term care facilities, home care settings, or hospitals. Their role and responsibilities are expanding due to an aging population needing more care, people being discharged from hospitals sooner, and fewer family members available to provide informal care.

Workshop B Prof.Bettina Cass Challenges of Work-Care Reconciliation for Carers Care Connect
This document summarizes a presentation about policies that aim to facilitate work-care reconciliation for carers of older people in Australia and England. It discusses how both countries rely heavily on unpaid family caregiving due to policies emphasizing aging in place. While legislative reforms have improved carers' rights to flexible work arrangements, many carers remain unaware of these rights or lack access to sufficient respite services needed to participate fully in the labor force. The document concludes that more comprehensive, accessible, and universal services are still required if countries want to better support carers in balancing work and care responsibilities.
This document provides an overview of a research project in Rwanda that studied how women balance unpaid care work and paid work. The project aimed to understand how women's economic empowerment programs can both empower women through paid work and better support their unpaid care responsibilities. Key findings included that women primarily undertake childcare and household tasks, paid work is often far from home, and balancing the two types of work leads to depletion and impacts childcare. The document recommends that future programs focus on decent work closer to home, childcare support, infrastructure to support businesses, and changing social norms around unpaid work responsibilities.
The document discusses women's empowerment in India. It notes that women are often deprived of decision-making power, freedom of movement, access to education and employment, and experience domestic violence. It provides statistics showing disparities between men and women in these areas. The document also outlines government programs aimed at women's empowerment through education, employment training, and improving socioeconomic status. It stresses that empowering women and achieving gender equality is important for fully realizing a society's potential.

Common challenges for rural physicians include workforce shortages, lack of specialty care access, and long work hours. The AAFP aims to establish itself as a leader on rural health issues through initiatives like advocacy, payment reform, practice support, and collaboration with other organizations to improve health in rural America.

Unpaid care work disproportionately burdens women and hinders their economic empowerment. In Rwanda, rural women spend on average 7.1 hours per day on unpaid care work compared to 2.1 hours for men. There is a need for policies and initiatives that recognize the value of unpaid care work, reduce women's care burden through services and infrastructure, and redistribute care responsibilities more equally within households and communities. Recommendations include improving data collection, promoting behavior change through male engagement, providing universal public services, and evaluating interventions to advance women's economic empowerment while addressing unpaid care work.

Challenges Associated with
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease
in remote Central Australia
This document outlines the schedule and topics for Concurrent Session 4.8 of a conference. It includes 4 presentations: 1) about a State Aboriginal Young Women's Committee in South Australia; 2) on the role of women's health nurse practitioners in improving access to health services; 3) on the minority voice of HIV-positive women in Australia and implications for mental health and community development; and 4) about reproductive health challenges associated with pelvic inflammatory disease in central Australia.

- Internet and mobile phone usage among Australian children has increased dramatically from 1998-2009, with over 70% of households having internet access by 2009 and 31% of children aged 5-14 having their own mobile phone.
- Cyberbullying is defined as "deliberate, repeated, and hostile behavior by an individual or group intended to harm others" through digital technologies.
- The objective of the health promotion project was to create a media package to educate young women on safe usage of emerging technologies and prevent cyberbullying, through establishing an advisory group of Year 9 students over 10 weeks.
This document outlines three presentations on media and violence taking place at Concurrent Session 4. The first presentation analyzes print media reporting on deaths related to domestic violence. The second examines the impact of sexualized media images on the mental health of aging women. The third discusses being savvy when interacting online.
The document discusses the enhanced role of women's health nurse practitioners Lorna Scott and Carolyn Enks in rural Australia. It provides background on their roles since 1986/1991 and authorization as nurse practitioners in 2001/2005. The nurse practitioners see over 1,000 rural women annually based on guidelines for common women's health issues. Between 2008-2009, clinic visits increased by 20% while management based on nurse practitioner guidelines increased by 30%. The conclusion states that the extended practice of nurse practitioners improves primary health care outcomes for rural women.
This document summarizes community health initiatives in 5 South Australian communities aimed at empowering women. It discusses how local consultation and partnerships were used to identify priorities and develop action plans. Some key initiatives discussed include an enrolled nursing cadetship program in Riverland, a women's coordinator and sewing group on Yorke Peninsula, and establishing a women's place in Oak Valley. It also describes a well women's health program developed in Coober Pedy that provided holistic health services and screenings. The conclusion emphasizes that the programs were locally led, built community empowerment and resilience, and involved cross-sector partnerships.
This document summarizes a presentation on a program called Sustainable Farm Families (SFF) that aims to improve the health and wellbeing of farming families, including women. The SFF program delivers health education directly to farms and recognizes that health is influenced by where people live and work. Evaluation found that over two years, the program helped reduce several health risk factors among participating women, including BMI, cholesterol, blood glucose, and blood pressure. Women reported improved empowerment and the majority felt the program was valuable in addressing priorities like farm safety, fitness, stress management, and health follow-up. The results suggest the SFF program is an effective way to engage farming families and communities in improving health.
This document discusses the isolation experienced by rural lesbians and ways to respond to their needs. It notes that over 1/3 of Australians view lesbianism negatively. For rural lesbians, the closet provides protection from prejudice but also isolation. Individual isolation is exacerbated by stigma, fear of discovery, and reduced support. Health practitioners should recognize lesbianism as a culture and institutions should treat all couples equally. The document calls for responses to address the isolation of rural lesbians.
This document outlines the schedule for Concurrent Session 4.5 of a conference on rural issues and approaches. The session is chaired by Patty Kinnersly and consists of 6 presentations on topics related to women's health in rural communities, including the health needs of refugee women, the isolation of rural lesbians, health and safety issues for farm women, stories of Aboriginal women in remote areas, enhancing roles to improve outcomes for rural women, and a gender-based service from the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

3. Overview
• Contribution of carers
• Caring - women’s work?
• Cost of caring for female carers
• A national agenda for improving female
carers economic health and wellbeing
4. Economic health of women
• Gender wage gap of 15-17% (NATSEM 2009)
• Women retire with half the savings men do
(AHRC 2009)
• Single elderly female households:
- highest incidence of poverty
- greatest risk of persistent poverty
(NATSEM 2008)
5. • Caring entrenches the disadvantage faced by
women
• The disproportionate amount of care provided
by women is also an underlying factor in the
economic inequality faced by women in
general
• Future face of poverty: old, grey and female
(O’Halloran, 2010)
Economic health of women
6. Overview
• Contribution of carers
• Caring - women’s work?
• Cost of caring for female carers
• A national agenda for improving female
carers economic health and wellbeing
7. Who is a carer?
A carer is any individual who provides unpaid
care and support to a family member or
friend who has a disability, mental illness,
drug and alcohol dependencies, chronic
condition, terminal illness or who is frail
8. Contribution of carers
• Carers: our ‘invisible health workforce’
• Carers provide the majority of care in
Australia
• Replacement value in 2005: $30.5 billion
(Access Economics 2005)
• Equivalent to 1 million full-time carer
positions in 2003 (AIWH 2004)
9. Future of care in Australia
• Ageing population
• Decreasing carer ratio
• 10% reduction in informal care translates to a
40% increase in the need for funded services
(Disability Investment Group 2009)
• Contribution of carers increasingly critical
10. Overview
• Contribution of carers
• Caring - women’s work?
• Cost of caring for female carers
• A national agenda for improving female
carers economic health and wellbeing
11. Caring - Women’s work?
• Women are more likely to be carers
– 54% of all carers are women (ABS 2004)
• Female carers provide more intense care than
male carers
– 71% of all primary carers are women
– 52% of female primary carers provide 40+
hours of care per week (compared to 39% of
male carers) (ABS 2008)
12. Female carers of working age
• Women more likely than men to be carers
while of working age
• Proportion of women caring peaks at 55-59 yr
cohort (25%)
• Proportion of men caring peaks in 75-79 yr
cohort
(ABS 2008)
13. Caring - women’s work
• Women are more likely than men to be carers
• Women provide more intense levels of care
than men
• Women are more likely to be carers during
working age
14. Overview
• Contribution of carers
• Caring - women’s work?
• Cost of caring for female carers
• A national agenda for improving female
carers economic health and wellbeing
15. Cost of caring for female carers
• Overall health and wellbeing
• Employment and labour force participation
• Income
• Dependence on government income support
• Financial stress
• Long term costs of caring
16. Carer health and wellbeing
• Lowest collective wellbeing of any
known group (Australian Unity Wellbeing Index Survey
2007)
• Poor economic health and well
being exacerbates other negative
impacts of caring
17. Employment and labour force
participation
Carers, in comparison to the general population
have:
• lower rates of employment
• lower rates of labour force participation
• fewer hours of paid work (for employed
carers)
18. Female carers vs. male carers
• Female and male carers have different employment
and participation patterns
• Labour force non-participation rate for female carers
is double that for male carers (42% and 21%)
• 24% of female carers work full-time vs 60% of male
carers
• Female carers are twice as likely to work part-time
(Thomson et al 2008)
19. Female carers vs. non-carers
• Significant difference in employment patterns
of female carers and other women
• Over half of female primary carers aged 30-
64 yrs not in the labour force compared to
less than a third of other women
• Only 1/5 of female primary carers in full-time
employment compared to nearly 2/5 of other
women (aged 30-64)
20. Caring and employment: a
causal relationship?
• Relationship between caring and employment
and labour force participation is not simple
• Carmichael and Charles (2003): four common
scenarios to illustrate the relationship
between caring and paid work
21. Substitution effect
Carers substitute time
spent caring for time
spent in the labour force
Respite effect
Carers seek to work for
the relief it provides from
the caring role
Restricted job choice effect
Wages are depressed
because the pursuit of better
positions is restricted and/or
carer changes to position with
less responsibility (and
remuneration)
Income effect
Carers seek to work to
counter the costs
associated with caring,
and for financial security
22. • Just over half of unemployed primary carers
had left paid work specifically to start or
increase care
• 38% of primary carers who had left paid
work to care because alternative care was not
available or was too expensive, or because
they had been unable to change their
working arrangements (SDAC 2003)
Caring and employment:
evidence of causality
23. • More than half of carers would increase their
work hours if the cost of alternative care was
more affordable (Taskforce on Care Costs 2006)
• Over one third of employed carers are
concerned about losing their job because of
their caring responsibilities
Caring and employment:
evidence of causality
24. Cost of caring: income
• Carers, especially primary carers, are more
likely to live in low income households
(Thomson 2008)
• Average income of carers is 25% lower than
that of non-carers (SDAC 2003)
• Average household income of a carer is much
less than general population (Cummings 2007)
25. Cost of caring: dependence
on income support
• Carers much more likely than non-carers to
have a government pension as their main
source of income (40% compared to 24%,
57% for primary carers)
• More likely for female carers than male carers
(for people aged 35-54 yrs, 33% of female
carers compared to 17% of male carers)
(ABS 2008)
26. Cost of caring: financial stress
• In addition to low income levels, there are
considerable costs associated with caring
• Carers are more likely to take dissavings
actions, and to experience difficulty in paying
utility bills (ABS 2008, Edwards 2008)
• Employed intensive carers had a rate of
financial stress twice their income poverty
rate (Thomson et al 2008)
27. Cost of caring: long term
• Impacts on female carers are long term and
affect the rest of life
• Low employment and labour force participation,
low income, high financial stress = little or no
superannuation or other savings for retirement
• For a woman, taking on primary care
responsibilities can reduce superannuation by
$80 000 on average (NATSEM 2008)
28. Overview
• Contribution of carers
• Caring - women’s work?
• Cost of caring for female carers
• A national agenda for improving female
carers economic health and wellbeing
29. Need for a national agenda
• Improve economic and overall wellbeing of
carers, particularly female carers
• Provide carers with real choice about how
they balance paid and unpaid work, and
informal and formal care
• Make caring more sustainable - avoid care
crisis
30. A national agenda
• Carer-friendly work place provisions
• Alternative care and support services
• Financial assistance which recognises the cost
and value of caring
31. Workplace provisions
• Introduction of true Carer Leave provisions
for carers
– Current arrangements deprive carers of sick leave
– Current arrangements favour some carers over
others
• Extension of the right to request flexible work
arrangements to all carers
32. Alternative care
• Carers have a right to choose how they
balance informal and formal care
• Lack of appropriate, affordable alternative
care a significant cause for withdrawal from
labour force and reduction of working hours
33. Adequate financial assistance
Income support for carers, as a minimum,
needs to:
• Adequately compensate for the financial costs
associated with caring
• Address long-term economic disadvantage
experienced by female carers in particular –
superannuation scheme for carers?
34. Conclusion
• Contribution of female carers
• Cost of caring for female carers
• A national agenda for improving female
carers economic health and wellbeing
