During the second session "Macroeconomic policies and the financing of care", on April 17, 2024, an exchange was facilitated around the policies and actions necessary to create a fiscal space that allows for the financing of fair, sustainable, and feminist care initiatives.

Panelist: Diego Collado, Associate Economic Affairs Officer of ECLAC's Gender Affairs Division The Learning Community "Realities and Challenges of Financing Care Policies and Systems in the Global South” was launched in February 2024. This cycle of sessions, which runs from February to August 2024, aims to promote learning on the main challenges in public financing and tax collection to support the recognition, redistribution, reduction, representation, and rewarding of care work.

The sessions also provide a space to share international, national, and local initiatives related to financing and taxation for the care sector. Co-convened by Oxfam LAC, Feminist Economic Roundtable, Latindadd, the Global Alliance for Care, and UN Women.
