'Girls spend 160 mn more hours than boys doing daily chores'
Girls globally spend 160 million hours more than boys each day doing household chores like washing clothes and cooking, UNICEF has said. Girls between 10 and 14 years spend twice as much time as boys, or 120 million hours more daily, doing household chores. "As a result, girls sacrifice important opportunities to learn, grow and... enjoy their childhood," officials said.
