The overall webinar series focuses on the importance of care in sustaining life and developing human capabilities. Unfortunately, care has not been recognized for its true value in almost all societies. While deliberations in the previous webinar centred on the close relationship between the systemic devaluation of care and patriarchy and the role of communities in fostering caring relationships, the focus of discussions in this webinar were on the economic structures that enable or inhibit the development and expression of caring capabilities in individuals and communities.
