So much to say about this episode! It's a 'must listen' for
anyone with an interest in gender equality.
Gary Barker is co-founder of the charity Promundo, which promotes
gender equality. He is also co-founder of Men Care, a charity that
encourages men to be caregivers. Added to this, Gary is one of the
lead authors of the bi-annual State of the World's Fathers
report. . . and he was a stay at home dad and main carer for his
daughter when she was young.
I'd intended this episode to focus on Gary's experiences as a stay
at home dad. While we do talk about this and swap experiences, he
said a huge amount about equalities issues and father's and men's
role in making the world a better, more just place.
