Assignment task:
Evans (2009) analyses two programs: Workfare and Basic Income as programs that are aimed at alleviating gender inequities in income security.
Women's caring for their own children, in their professional life, and for elderly relatives, or relatives with a diverse ability, all have an impact on women's income security.
Describe how women's caring impacts gender incomes and identify one federal and one provincial/territorial program that is aimed at supporting women's caregiving (personal or professional) roles.
Identify what changes you would advocate for to ensure women's caregiving was fairly and financially compensated.
