Despite its progressive self-image, the cultural sector remains deeply unequal in terms of gender: the gender pay gap is 30 % in this field, compared to 18 % nationwide. Parents, especially mothers*, face particular discrimination due to their caregiving responsibilities. This panel brings together initiators of care networks and experts to explore how the art sector can become more parent-friendly and equitable.
