Descripción:The following article aims to evidence the contributions that the National University of Costa Rica (UNA) has made to the visibilization of unpaid work, which includes domestic and voluntary work and the production for self-consumption, measured through time-use surveys. The main contributions from the conceptual and methodological point of view that made 2004, 2011, and 2017 measurements possible are described. In addition, the contribution of the UNA in the first economic valuation of unpaid work is highlighted, and some of the gender gaps in the use and distribution of time are presented, with emphasis on unpaid domestic work, based on the 2017 National Time Use Survey. Some of the results are presented by the area of residence, in addition to indicating whether the work was performed on weekdays or weekends.
