Inaugural lecture Series 2024-25 – Professor Anna Tarrant

** The Lincoln Institute for Advanced Studies is delighted to invite you to Professor Anna Tarrants’s inaugural lecture ‘Co-creating father-inclusive societies through research and innovation’ **

Co-creating father-inclusive societies through research and innovation
While men experience privileges in many arenas of social life, it is as-fathers and caregivers where they often encounter exclusion and disadvantage. Despite evidence of growing commitments among men to be more involved and engaged as-fathers, current social welfare and policy systems nationally and internationally work against men’s involvements in caregiving, undermining their capacity to fulfil a core aspect of their citizenship, as well as progress efforts towards gender equality. Presenting a research and innovation journey designed to recover men’s experiences and participation as caregivers, particularly with men in low-income families, Anna provides insights into how she has developed and utilised pioneering qualitative methods, including qualitative secondary analysis and longitudinal co-creation, to both capture and address the exclusion of men as-fathers and to facilitate whole systems change through participatory engagements with fathers, multi-sector professionals and policymakers.
