Toivo's commentaries and briefs assume some familiarity with family policy as a field. Our explainers do not. They set out the concepts, definitions and frameworks underneath our research, in plain language, for readers encountering these ideas for the first time.
Introductory guides to the concepts behind family policy, written for general readers, students, journalists and practitioners rather than specialists. Where commentaries respond to specific events and data, explainers set out the frameworks that make sense of them.
More explainers are forthcoming, including on parental leave, early childhood development, and social protection. Subscribe via the contact page to receive new publications directly.
