I agree. Women's organizations in particular have been working on these issues for decades and decades. The answers are here. We know what needs to be done. Women's organizations work with all sorts of women, different demographics of women. A lot of us are supported by our members, so there is an accountability and there's the strength of our collective analysis that women's organizations bring to conversations about economic recovery.
It's good to come up with concrete actions and have them together as a holistic.... There are groups that, say, work on child care, some that work on women in law. I do think we need to bring some of this together and have concrete actions. I agree there comes to be a point where studying the same issues for decades and decades can delay action, and I am concerned about that. I'm concerned that when COVID is over, austerity measures will be put in, no action will take place and we'll be back to normal.
I think it's a balance of getting it right, making sure the right people are at the table. Women's groups have to be at the table, because of the collective knowledge and expertise they bring. But, yes, let's get it right and let's do it.
