This contribution analyses the importance given to gender in articles related to caregiving for older adults in five francophone newspapers ( Le Soir, Le Devoir, Figaro, Liberation and La Presse ) across three countries (Belgium, France and Canada). Out of the 254 articles in our sample, less than a fifth (49) made any mention of gender. A closer analysis of the gender related contributions reveal that only 18 articles devote more than a line to the interaction between gender and caregiving activities and its multiple socio-economic consequences. This is highly surprising since women provide the bulk of caregiving efforts and are the ones facing difficulties due to the lack of governmental actions to assist with these functions. These consequences are well documented in the scientific literature and feature caregiving burnout, loss of employment and economic insecurity. This contribution features an analysis and some extracts from the 18 articles in question.

看不见的女人：法语报纸上的性别与照料

该文稿分析了三个国家（比利时，法国和加拿大）的五份法语报纸（《勒索尔》，《德瓦瓦》，《费加罗报》，《解放》和《新闻报》）中有关老年人护理的文章中对性别的重要性。在我们样本中的254条文章中，只有不到五分之一（49）提及性别。对性别相关贡献的进一步分析表明，只有18篇文章专门讨论了性别与护理活动之间的相互作用及其多重社会经济后果。这是非常令人惊讶的，因为妇女提供了大量照料工作，并且由于缺乏政府协助这些职能的政府行动而面临困难。这些后果已在科学文献中得到充分记录，并具有护理精疲力尽的特点，失业和经济不安全。本文的分析和18篇文章的部分摘录都来自本文。
