Despite an increasing worldwide focus on the role of men in families and burgeoning research documenting men's contribution to gender equality, the importance of their engagement for work-family balance, and the numerous positive paternal contributions to children's development, policy to makers have been slow to recognize the need for effective public policy that is supportive of men's involvement in their families. This publication aims to promote the knowledge of trends affecting families and increase awareness of family issues. Addressing the evolving role of men in families, it outlines the need to develop social policies supporting these new roles for the benefit of families.
