Choose one of the issues the International Domestic Servant Federation is working with https://idwfed.org/our-work/domestic-workers/Links to an external site. Based on the texts assigned to Care and work (Chapter 7 The Globalization of caring labor-2.pdf) and Labour markets (chose one text from the Labour market lectures),

NOTE: We discussed at the seminar today that the contents in the link do not necessarily fit with the literature and so this idea did not work in a straight-forward way. Therefore, you do not need to focus on the issues in the IDSF if you find it unhelpful. Instead, you can focus on an issue/case of your choice where you see a clear link and that you think is more relevant. You can also write about an issue you think is missing in the IDSF and that they should be working with.

Answer to the following questions:

What is the problem/issue? Describe the case based on what you find in the link above.
What are the evidence/facts of the problem? (The extent of the problem as far as you can find: Facts, figures, statistics, and/or explain what facts are unavailable, and unknown.)
How can the case be understood in relation to the literature on feminist international political economy? Answer by building on at least three texts from the course literature.
How could the issue/problem be improved? What can be done to work for change?

At the seminar, you will be paired up with a classmate to discuss your answers and write them down in this document. You will then be divided into four groups and each group writes their demand for change in this document We make the following demands for change

Write your names by your answers in the document!

You are also required to hand in an individually written seminar paper Friday 11 April at 7pm.
