• Changing role of women and men in
workplace

How Do We Address This?
• How do we ensure that all children and
families have opportunities and access?
• How do we ensure that technology is not
used as a replacement for engagement?
• How do we help to set the conditions for
social interaction and lifelong learning
among children and parents every year of
their lives?
• How do we empower?
