“Patage action”

Balancing parental permission between both parents can produce a positive effect on family and society in general. Family politics should not be overlooked and should not strengthen gender stereotypes, which view women as the only party they can and should take care of the child. Men, like women, need to offer room to balance professional life with private life and access to child care.

All parents are invited to join their parents' “Parental Access” with their children so that they can together once again announce that both parents have an important role in their children's lives.

The walk starts from the “German Bridge” After walking, all participants will gather at the Fountain to discuss with representatives of partner organisations for current policies on maternity leave and for a cocktail of opportunity.
