Poverty is exacerbated by the invisible labor of rights-claiming, disproportionately borne by women due to exclusionary bureaucracies. This "administrative penalty" perpetuates inequality. Recommendations include systemic reforms
(universal services, inclusive digitization), recognition of this labor, and transforming gender norms. Three questions this brief answers to, (i) why is rights-claiming a genuine form of work?, (ii) why does this burden fall disproportionately on women? , (iii) what can be done
to address this inequity ?.
