Care, both paid and unpaid, plays a fundamental role in society. However, it is often invisible, undervalued and unequally distributed. By discussing a new social contract for care, the Peace Forum seeks to recognize and value the importance of care as an essential element for individual and collective well-being.

It will also reflect on how care falls disproportionately on women and girls, which perpetuates gender inequalities. In addressing this topic, a discussion will be opened on how caring for people, particularly women and young people, contributes to generating conditions of stability and social peace that strengthen democracy.
