State of Africa’s Fathers 2015

This report is an adaptation of the global State of the World’s Fathers Report, which was produced by MenCare, a global campaign to promote men and boys’ involvement as equitable, non-violent caregivers. With activities in more than 30 countries, MenCare partners carry out joint advocacy initiatives, research, and programming to engage men in positive parenting, equitable caregiving, violence prevention and in maternal, newborn, and child health. The campaign is coordinated by Promundo and Sonke Gender Justice, with Rutgers, Save the children, and the MenEngage alliance serving as Steering committee members.
