INSTRAW Library

Welcome to the INSTRAW LIBRARY, a compilation of around 600 publications produced by the former UN International Research and Training Institute for the Advancement of Women (UN-INSTRAW), which served as the leading UN institute devoted to research, training and knowledge management to achieve gender equality and women’s empowerment. INSTRAW, along with DAW, OSAGI and UNIFEM, came together in 2010 to establish the present UN Women.

Year: 2012
Description:

Este libro analiza los efectos que la migración de mujeres paraguayas a Argentina tiene sobre la organización de los cuidados en sus hogares de origen, en un contexto de partida regido por un régimen de cuidados injusto. Al mismo tiempo, realiza propuestas concretas para integrar el componente del cuidado como eje central del desarrollo y realizar intervenciones públicas que valoren el trabajo de cuidados, la responsabilidad colectiva y la igualdad de género, todas tareas pendientes en las agendas políticas.
