Evidence review on how #media #reporting normalizes #GBV #VAWG & perpetuates discriminatory #gendernorms.🔗 includes 10 recs for key stakeholders. 📣 to my @Ladysmith co-authors, @LF_Ladysmith + @Jenniferbittrly unicef.org/reports/mapping-n…
Dear Indians, It’s 2023. Women work late, women can be out at midnight, women can be on the road at 2 am, women can be anywhere, whenever they want. None of these should cause death. If at all, men should not step out after 10 in public interest. #SultanPuriAccident

"...policies that support fathers’ time at home after birth may help mold men into more attuned fathers." #paidfamilyleave has made raising an infant a beautiful experience for our family, and it must be so for all families. #BuildBackBetter nytimes.com/2021/11/08/opini…
Millions of women are out of the workforce today, and one out of four says the problem is child care. If you care about women, babies, child care workers, or small businesses, then you care about this bill. We need #UniversalChildCare.

NEW - Over 100 economists are saying it's time for the U.S. to have a 21st-century care infrastructure that meets the needs of women and families. Good thing the #BuildBackBetter Act includes legislation to #SolveChildCare. Retweet and tell a friend. ampr.gs/3ll5WDn
