Our study published today in Lancet Public Health reveals considerable variance in how different domains of unpaid labour affect mental health, as well as continued inequity in the division of unpaid labour in households. https://t.co/b2GR8rI1Rz #gender#inequality@unimelbMSPGH
Good article by Daisy Turnball. Imperative that we keep having these vital conversations, especially with our youth, and keep working tirelessly to shift damaging gender norms in this country. https://t.co/ueVsJRq9zZ

Women are at greater risk of job loss and sustained employment precarity after the covid-19 pandemic, with consequential effects on their health and wellbeing. Responses to covid-19 must attend to gendered effects. See our article with @humairamaheen@ytaouk & Tony LaMontagne
