AWARE and DOT are working together, with support from J.P. Morgan, on supporting underprivileged women to join the eldercare sector as a means of employment and livelihood. This train-&-place program has short term as well as long term gains namely:
– underprivileged women gain income and employment from providing care to elderly
– relieves caregivers within the family (usually women) from the burden of care, so that they can pursue their normal lives and careers
– prevent women from entering poverty in their old age because of they had to sacrifice their careers when they were younger
