The Fatherhood Institute is conducting the most comprehensive review ever undertaken in Britain, of decades of research into the roles of fathers in families.
We are delighted to announce that the Nuffield Foundation is funding us to research fathers’ and father figures’ experiences during the coronavirus (COVID-19) lockdown.

Nick Clegg has been making headlines in recent months as a stalwart advocate of parents sharing the responsibility for hands-on caring.

Paternity leave is a father-specific right to take time off work soon after the birth of a child.
Jeremy Davies writes:
As part of our #DadsExcluded campaign we wrote last week to the organisers of the ‘Mumandworking’ awards, having been alerted by a follower of our Facebook page to what looked like a missed opportunity for the promotion of flexible working opportunities to all parents, rather than just mums.

Our latest research summary presents strong evidence that new dads taking time off work to look after their babies is good news – not just for them, but for their children, and their children’s mothers.
