Development of Child Care Services - to Promote Women's Employment and Ensure Effective Response to Domestic Violence
The new Monitoring Report of the Fund "Sukhumi": "Development of Child Care Services - to Promote Women's Employment and Ensure Effective Prevention and Response to Domestic Violence."
The document highlights the main barriers to women's employment, including low sensitivity of employers to vulnerable women e.g. single mothers, women victims of domestic violence; inflexible working schedule for working mothers and lack of after school and kindergarten care services; Lack of access to extended summer school and kindergarten services, insufficient day/evening childcare centers and afterschool clubs, etc. These barriers cannot be overcome without mobilizing financial and human resources and proper State support. This requires coordinated work and cooperation between state structures and civil society organizations. The document also provides specific recommendations to address the existing barriers.
The project is implemented with the support of the organization Brot
