%X This paper provides information on the level and type of unpaid care work undertaken by Indigenous  Australians.

The care economy includes activities such as providing unpaid child  care; unpaid assistance for someone with a disability, a long-term  illness, or problems related to old age; undertaking domestic work; and  volunteering. Information on the level and type of unpaid work  undertaken by all Australians was first collected in the 2006 Census.  The questions were included again in the 2011 Census.
