Parental Leave Policies and Social Sustainability

The main challenges are to build the network, identify and fill gaps in PPL research, develop a future-oriented and cross-disciplinary PPL terminology, and facilitate future research by closing the PPL data gap.

Five Working Groups (WGs) will be established to focus on:

1. The development of a theoretical framework;
2. the identification of social inequalities through PPL policies;
3. the relevance of PPL for child development;
4. providing a future-oriented PPL terminology and
5. the expansion of PPL data.
