Model Inter-American Law on Care

The Model Inter-American Law on Care includes key elements of international instruments and is based on existing standards on rights, non-discrimination and equality between men and women. Its purpose is to recognize, redistribute, regulate, promote and generate new forms of care for unpaid care and domestic work, as well as to make visible and recognize the historical contribution of women in this area. Through this Model Law, a concrete tool is offered to States to strengthen economic autonomy and enhance the contribution and human talent of women in the productive world and towards sustainable economic growth.
