Over 100 million people have benefited from improved social protection coverage through @ilo's support. Behind these numbers are real lives changed, people better able to retire with dignity, access healthcare & support their families in times of crisis. ow.ly/wWbc50Yws5B

My 2 cents at the #GDS organized side event at CSW70: Globally, women represent up to 80% of caregivers for persons with disabilities and the elderly, with an increase to 90% in low and middle-income counties[1]. In terms of poverty, it is predicted that as a result of engagement in unpaid caregiving responsibilities, women miss out on up to $10.8 trillion annually according to Oxfam. We must do more to ensure voice of women with disabilities in care support and beyond. @UnitedNations @UN_Women #includivecareagenda @UN_GDF
