Hello, and thanks for sharing this interesting course.
As a person studying an organisation trying to introduce change through their parental leave policies, can I ask if you are approaching gender equality not only from the side of increasing women’s access to opportunity andexperience, but in supporting (nay, encouraging) men’s access to leave/part time work etc to allow them to take on care in the home?
Organisations can play a big role in changing expectations about what are men’s roles and women’s roles. By engendering a culture of care as a human norm rather than something women do, the path to equality can be made smoother.
kind regards,
