This third State of the World’s Fathers report is rooted firmly in a feminist analysis of care and the belief that unpaid care work must be valued equally with paid work and shared equally between men and women. It focuses specifically on men, and on men who are fathers or caregivers, because this is a part of gender equality and children’s rights where massive shifts are needed. Worldwide, there remains a widespread expectation that caring is women’s work, and men’s role as breadwinners should largely keep them exempt from any household chores or work that includes providing care. The report reveals new research on men’s caregiving from 11 countries, with additional cross-country analysis of data from over 30 countries. It calls for men’s uptake of their full share of the world’s childcare and domestic work – across all societies and relationships – to advance gender equality.
