Engaging men to be more active, involved fathers is key to advancing gender equality goals and improving the lives of families. This Compendium of Fatherhood Programmes offers good practices from successful Papa Schools around the world. These programmes have achieved positive results in the areas of parenting skills, fathers' engagement in caregiving, parent-child interaction and relationship quality, and violence reduction.
