Fathers matter, too! Supporting men's engagement in young children's care and development

The webinar will introduce the Engaging Men in Nurturing Care multi-country initiative aimed at influencing the policy discourse and practices at home and in services in three cities in Italy, Portugal and Spain. Simultaneously, the initiative engages in national and European policy discourses about gender equity and shared responsibilities in informal care, aiming to champion city level interventions targeting policy makers, multi-sectoral professionals, pre- and in-service providers, fathers and father-to-be, and employers in a comprehensive approach towards creating enabling and supportive environments for father engagement.
