Why is it important?
It shows that out of 24 hours women spent more than 16 hours on diffrent activities but still they are not treated as a worker and their unpaid work is not considerd.
Perspectives
i have worked on this issues because in our society women are treated as a secondary worker and they are not in the mainstream in the government policy. I personally fell the issues in my own village and surrounding areas. This prompted me to raise their vioce through this work.
