Today, June 9, Equimundo\u00a0launches the 2017 L'\u00e9tat des p\u00e8res dans le monde : il est temps d'agir<\/em>\u00a0rapport,<\/em>\u00a0a MenCare publication, revealing what has stalled progress toward global gender equality and laying out a bold agenda forward for men and boys doing fully 50 percent of the world\u2019s unpaid care work.<\/h3>\n

\"\"At the current rate of global progress, it will take an estimated 75 years for women and men to achieve equal pay for equal work. Reaching equal representation in government, business, and other spheres of power could take even longer.<\/p>\n

The second-ever L'\u00e9tat des p\u00e8res du monde<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>report draws from nearly 100 research studies and reports, with data from nearly every country where it is available. A publication by Soins pour hommes<\/a>: A Global Fatherhood Campaign, it calls for a global goal and national action plans \u2013 building on Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) \u2013 to achieve men and boys doing 50 percent of the unpaid care work.<\/p>\n

Even where men are contributing more than they used to, globally the gaps between women\u2019s and men\u2019s contributions persist. Across 20 countries, men\u2019s contribution to housework and childcare increased only an average of 6 hours per week over 40 years. These gaps, which are largest in low- and lower-middle-income countries, not only hold women back in their paid jobs and professional trajectories, but also limit broader social and economic development, as well as progress toward gender equality.<\/p>\n

Gary Barker, President and CEO of Equimundo, MenCare\u2019s global co-coordinator, says:<\/p>\n

\u201cRadical, transformational change in the division of unpaid care must be a global goal. Anything less is inequality. In a global political climate that is experiencing conservative backlash around sexual and reproductive rights and government support services, the time for action is now.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The report affirms that many men faire<\/em> want to be more involved in the lives of their children. Even in countries where men\u2019s involvement in care work is limited, such as those in the Middle East and North Africa, half or more of men surveyed said that they spent too little time with their children because of their job. In the United States, 46 percent of fathers said they were not spending enough time with their children, compared with 23 percent of mothers. For those men who are already taking on greater caregiving roles, L'\u00e9tat des p\u00e8res du monde<\/em> reveals that it is often unexpected life circumstances \u2013 situations that present no alternative \u2013 that had driven their new household or professional roles.<\/p>\n

A major impediment to progress, finds the report, are the gender norms<\/em> that stereotype caregiving as \u201cwomen\u2019s work.\u201d Across 59 countries, 45 percent of men and 35 percent of women, on average, agreed with the statement, \u201cWhen jobs are scarce, men should have more rights to a job than women.\u201d Economic and workplace realities<\/em>, such as the gender wage gap and norms that discriminate against flexibility or taking leave, further drive an inequitable division of labor at home and at work. Finally, laws and policies<\/em> around equal pay, taxation, and public provision of childcare, parental leave, and social protection often reinforce the unequal distribution of care.<\/p>\n

Wessel van den Berg from Sonke Gender Justice, co-coordinator of MenCare, says:<\/p>\n

\u201cWomen\u2019s unpaid care is currently subsidizing labor markets across the world. Now is the time to reduce the debt that men, the private sector and states owe to women. Besides this question of equality, it also makes good sense in terms of long-term resource use. An increased investment in early childhood focused care and development, along with an equal, non-transferable parental leave framework reduces long term social welfare spending.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The report highlights specific recommendations for action, including its foremost policy recommendation for paid leave<\/em>, equally shared between mothers and fathers (or between other co-caregiver arrangements). L'\u00e9tat des p\u00e8res du monde<\/em> also highlights access to income support <\/em>\u2013 including poverty alleviation and affordable, high-quality childcare \u2013 and universally available father-centered parent training<\/em> as spaces for progress.<\/p>\n
