@CityofCT This water has now leaked for more than a month. At this point I’m emailing daily with no joy. Seems like we’re bringing #dayzero closer now.

So good to see this acknowledgement of the value of care! @equimundo_org @MenCareGlobal @MenCareSA @SonkeTogether

The #StateoftheWorldsFathers 2023 report shows that while fathers are doing more childcare, they still do markedly less than women. Let's change this. Investing in care work is critical for sustainable development and #GenderEquality. @equimundo_org @MenCareGlobal #WD2023

Wonderful to see! All the best for the event! @MenCareGlobal @MenCareSA @SonkeTogether @equimundo_org

#MenCare mission is to promote men to be allies in supporting women’s social and economic equality, by taking on more responsibility for unpaid work. True equality will only be reached when men are taking on 50% of the world’s child care & domestic work. men-care.org/what-we-do/adv…
