"Care is an anathema to #capitalism. Its virtues are capitalism’s vices. Its rich foundation for meaningful work is capitalism’s ‘productivity crisis’. To the mainstream economist, the time-intensive work of #care translates as low or stagnant productivity. The thing that’s ‘holding us back’ from the growth we are so obsessed with. "—

🇪🇺 I moderated The #BeyondGrowth Conference Care Panel in the @europarl.

80% of care across the entire EU is provided by informal carers – and it’s vital they receive more support.

A gift of journalism is meeting countless unsung people deep in the #careeconomy & other trenches. Meet a homicide detective who became an organ procurement coordinator for a Brooklyn transplant unit. Read to learn why he changed careers: https://revkin.substack.com/p/organ-hunter🙏📸@MasterShung

Stat of the day:

I was excited today to learn about http://zinniatv.com - curating and creating video content that helps. Examples: https://www.zinniatv.com/channels/free #careeconomy #mentalhealth 1/
