Equimundo in the Press: June 2019

Welcome to “Equimundo in the Press,” a monthly recap of media that mention Equimundo or MenCare, the global fatherhood campaign that Equimundo co-coordinates. This past June, Equimundo launched the L'état des pères du monde (SOWF) 2019 rapport, revealing new data and analysis from over 40 countries, and recommendations to close the unpaid care gap.
