"Any policies that support the involvement of fathers raising their children can change the dynamics and the family in a way that is positive for raising healthy children.” ” — Maria Melchior (lNSERM)PARIS, FRANCE, March 4, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The roots of International Women’s Day go back to women striking for better conditions, an end to discrimination in garment factories, and the struggle for the right to vote. These days were first celebrated in the United States and Europe. To mark this day, UNODC/’Listen First’ advisers also call for gender equity in the home to create a more equitable world for women and children. Especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, children and their parents have been forced to stay at home, creating ever more difficulties, especially for vulnerable families.
