“My research on care work and quality of life deeply resonates with the mission of the Home Renaissance Foundation, which seeks to place the dignity of the person and the vitality of the home at the center of social renewal. Care work, often invisible and undervalued, contributes essentially to human development, social cohesion, and long-term well-being. Our insights on the economic, emotional, and relational impact of care on families and communities, aligns well with the Foundation’s commitment to elevating the home as a primary sphere of human flourishing, essential to build a more humane and sustainable society”.
