| Summary, etc |
Public policy in India views women’s labour, especially care work, through a narrow, gendered lens. This is evident from how the government of India (Got) treats Anganwadi workers and helpers, who from an exclusively family workfare working at the grassroots level of the integrated child development services (ICDS), a flagship progrmme of the gol. There are approximately 2.6 million Anganwadi works and helpers employed in the ICDS scheme (EPW editorial 2009). This paper examines the state’s perception of women’s work and its approach to care work, by discussing the issues of Anganwadi workers and helpers. The paper fouces on how these works joined together to gain collective voice and how, through unionizing they sought to improve their working and living conditions. It analyses the role played by the all India federation of Anganwadi workers and Helpers (AIFAWH), in organsing these works and the impact it had on them.- Reproduced |
