Equimundo: Center for Masculinities and Social Justice

EU Legislative Interests

N/A we have not focused on any specific policies yet. But we have a clear policy ask and invite for governments around the world where we list the following: 1. Establishing equal, fully paid, non-transferable parental leave for all parents, in addition to maternity leave and care days. 2. Providing state-supported, high-quality childcare that facilitates the full participation in economic activities for all working parents and caregivers. 3. Transforming health sector institutions to promote fathers’ involvement from the prenatal period through birth and childhood and men’s involvement as caregivers. 4. Establishing national care policies and campaigns that recognize, reduce, and redistribute care work equally between men and women. 5. Expanding social protection programs to redistribute care equally between women and men who are unemployed or working in the informal economy, while keeping a focus on the needs and rights of women and girls.

Communication Activities

We coordinate a campaign called Men Care which works alongside local partners (More than 100 in 65 countries) and are currently pushing for the consideration of commitments which addresses changes in practices and behaviors at the individual, corporate and governmental levels.
