Network of Ethiopian Women’s Association (NEWA) in partnership with OXFAM Ethiopia facilitated a two days training for public and private sector representatives on unpaid care and domestic work. The training was focused on addressing how unpaid care and domestic works affect women’s participation at all levels, and also emphasized issues on awareness creation and behavioral change in unpaid care and domestic work. Apart from this, the training also encourages networking among private and public sectors on care agendas, and inputs were collected on better coordinating the public and private sectors on unpaid care and domestic work agendas. The participants were very interactive. The trainer Mr. Eniyew Tamiru, who is from the Ministry of Women and Social Affairs (MoWSA) presented conceptual clarity on unpaid care and domestic work.
