As much as half of the world’s work is unpaid. And most of it is done by women.
This imbalance not only robs women of economic opportunities. It is also costly to society in the form of lower productivity and forgone economic growth. It follows that a fairer allocation of unpaid work would not only benefit women but would also lead to more efficient workforces and stronger economies.
For these reasons, reducing gender imbalances in unpaid work is part of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
Examples of unpaid work include cooking, cleaning, fetching food or water, and caring for children and the elderly. These tasks are not counted as part of economic activity because they are difficult to measure based on values in the marketplace. Yet their economic value is substantial, with estimates ranging from 10 to 60 percent of GDP.
In our new study, we find that unpaid work declines as economic development increases particularly because there is less time spent on domestic chores. Social institutions and values can constrain the redistribution of unpaid work by preventing men from sharing the burden at home.
Unpaid work declines as economic development increases.
Overworked and underpaid
It’s no secret that women disproportionately shoulder the burden of unpaid work. Less well understood is just how many more unpaid hours women put in than men on a given day. Women do 4.4 hours of unpaid work on average around the world and men only 1.7 hours.
There are large differences across countries.
In Norway, the gap is small, with women doing 3.7 hours of unpaid work, while men contribute 3. On the other extreme, in Egypt, women do 5.4 hours per day of unpaid work, and men only 35 minutes. In the US, women do 3.8 hours of unpaid work and men do 2.4 hours.
rate this passage I wrote for an assignment 1-100
assing- Write a letter to a younger student explaining the importance of making good choices and how the choices affect the future. Use information from the passage to connect your own ideas to the speech.
Dear children,
When we were younger we had limited decisions compared to when we are older. Something that I could do today that I couldn't do 4 years ago, were things like how late I slept, clothes I wear on specific occasions, and etc. The choice I could have made at the age of 10 wouldn't really impact my life, since my parent was really guiding me. But now that I have more freedom, my entire future could be determined by a single choice I make. So, making good decisions as you grow up, is a very important thing.
In a passage, called Life Isn't Fair — Deal With It, it says "One of my clients came to this country from Africa in his late teens, barely spoke the language, drove a cab while working his way through college, and is now the president of a large technology services firm." this text shows how a boy came to this county at a young age but now he is a president of a large company. That is an example of how somebody would have made good choices to become the best he could be even though he wasn't born in this county. Obama was a man who wasn't really full American but became the president, through good choices. Walt Disney was born poor and was rejected a lot of times, but he didn't change his motive of making good choices even though he failed a lot of times.
A question I was asked before is 'How will people around you influence your actions?' Well, the decisions I make or am going to make will be thought through before I make them. Since everybody around me is looking at me, the choice I make must be good ones. My younger siblings are one big example, I noticed that everything I do, they watch me and imitate me.
In conclusion, When we were younger we had limited decisions compared to when we are older. But as we grow from having little decision, those decisions can impact our future for good or bad. There are a lot of people who had become the best from the decisions they made. And everybody in your life watches you and the choices you make, and those decisions could also impact other people's lives.

Hi, I have read all 30 chapters of this book. This answer is free of spoilers, though!
Simon was a student at Bayview High that gossiped about the people who made fun of him. Although he was not a good person, readers still debate whether he was or was not. I do not think Simon was a bully, just a misunderstood student. However, Simon did some bad things that you should never do, and despite this, I do not think he deserved what happened to him.
Would recommend "One Of Us Is Lying" by Karen M. McManus if you like mysteries and feelings of suspense.

What is a phrase?In grammar, a phrase is called as an expression in some contexts it is a group of words or singular word which acts as a grammatical unit. For instance, the English expression "the very happy squirrel" is a noun phrase which contains the adjective phrase "very happy". Phrases can consist of a single word or a complete sentence. In theoretical linguistics, phrases are often analyzed as units of syntactic structure such as a constituent.
There is a difference between the common use of the term phrase and its technical use in linguistics. In common usage, a phrase is usually a group of words with some special idiomatic meaning or any other significance, such as "all rights reserved", "economical with the truth", "kick the bucket", and the like.
In theories of syntax, a phrase is any group of words, or sometimes a single word, which plays a particular role within the syntactic structure of a sentence. It does not have to have any special meaning or significance, or even exist anywhere outside of the sentence being analyzed, but it must function there as a complete grammatical unit.
