Dr. Emily Murphy:

The Senator made a good point about time poverty and thinking about that more when looking at bringing greater gender equality from a social and economic perspective. It would be interesting to see the breakdown in families in countries where men do more care. At the moment there is not just time poverty but very gendered allocations of time within families. It is a very interesting aspect to bring into the discussion. I would be in favour of that. As a society, we want to move towards more equal time shares between different activities and not men being seen to do more of an activity versus women. That would be an interesting change.
