EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

June 2025

Latin America is facing a reproductive crisis marked by the deterioration of care service quality and coverage, alongside the overburdening of women who provide unpaid care within households. In response, several countries in the region are advancing the debate and exploring policy alternatives to address growing care needs. This report, grounded in a feminist perspective, examines potential financing mechanisms to support the development and expansion of care systems across Latin America.

It aims to contribute to the debate and advance proposals for Financing for Development (FFD4 Conference).
