Documentary Synopsis:

Set in Mexico, ‘Time for Caring’ is a documentary that follows the daily life of ten women of varying ages and social backgrounds during their everyday activities, in which caregiving work is always involved. The film explores how caregiving and household tasks are predominantly assigned to women, which ultimately leads to social and gender inequalities by impacting their educational and employment opportunities. The testimonies and experiences of these protagonists highlight the absence of the State in the co-responsibility of caregiving tasks.

The seminar series aims to:

• Foster discussions on questions of/around gender and feminist studies
• Provide a safe and comfortable space for students to present their research
• Create an opportunity to fine tune presentation skills and conference presentations/possible publications
