Women spend more hours on unpaid care work than men, with the gap particularly wide in low- and middle-income countries.

On International Women’s Day, we would like to hear from women around the world about the caring responsibilities they bear daily. What duties do you shoulder – and how do they compare with your partner’s? How do you feel about this?

We are particularly interested in speaking with women living in countries in Africa, Latin America and Asia. Please get in touch below if you would like to share your point of view.
