Recommendation DUTCH NGO’S CSW 53
1. Unequal sharing in caretaking is merely a symptom of gender inequality in general and of the obstacles that women face in making their own choices and decisions. Equal sharing between women and men in caretaking can only be realized if gender inequality in general is combated at all levels and in all areas.
2. Strengthen and expand health systems, organizationally and financially, at in order to increase the availability and accessibility of public health care and lower the disproportional burden of women in home based caretaking.
3. Ensure that before policy and budgetary decisions are made, with regards to public and private health systems, and in particular in the area of home based or informal care, an independent analysis of their impact on women and men is carried out (ref: PfA 204a)

8. To release women’s burden in the area of home based caretaking, take necessary measures to provide access for all women to family planning methods and ensure their freedom to decide about the number and spacing of their children (ref CEDAW, art 12.1)
9. In order to achieve gender equality in the area of caretaking, promote educational programmes for men to change stereotypes in the area of gender roles and their understanding of women’s human rights.
