"Care Manifesto" places care at the center of discussions about our current crisis: from personal care—childcare, healthcare, elderly care to care for the natural world. We live in a world dominated by indifference, but this does not have to be reality. "Care Manifesto" proposes a visionary approach for a truly caring world. The authors wish to revolutionize the role of care in our daily lives, making it our organizing demand in every dimension and on every scale of life. We all depend on each other, and only by caring for these interdependencies can we cultivate a world in which each of us can not only live but thrive.
"Care Manifesto" demands we place care at the heart of the state and the economy. A caring government must promote collective joy, not just the satisfaction of individual desires. This means reorganizing labor through cooperatives, localization, and nationalization. It proposes expanding our understanding of kinship towards a more 'multifaceted care.' It calls for caring places through the restoration of public space, so as to create a more welcoming city. It sets an agenda for the environment, the most urgent one, placing care at the center of our relationship with the natural world.
