With the aim of understanding future care demand, this research applies an intersectional feminist lens across three domains of care, including childcare, care for older people, and care for persons with disabilities. Building on an earlier landscape analysis, a mixed methods approach was applied with qualitative and quantitative data collected between October 2024 and August 2025, including 335 participants across interviews, focus groups, and validation workshops. Data was triangulated with secondary data using national and international statistics and policy documents. 

This report underscores the urgent need for governments and the private sector to plan for future care demands through a gender-transformative lens. Ultimately, transforming care from an undervalued domestic burden into a recognised pillar of economic and social infrastructure will be essential for fostering resilience, productivity, and equality across the three countries.
