Overarching

The aim of the overarching project is to create cohesion between the three Living Labs. This way, when the studies are completed, it can really be seen which barriers are most important to remove and which boosts would be most useful in facilitating women’s economic resilience. Taking a ‘fix the system’-approach, the Motivation, Opportunity and Ability (i.e., MOA-framework) of all relevant actors in the eco-system of women (partners, employers, midwives, and the women themselves) are investigated (see figure below). This is done using surveys, and (group) interviews in all Living Labs. Only when all relevant actors have the motivation, opportunity and ability, the economic resilience of women will actually be increased.

For example, employers should be motivated to hire these women, have the opportunity in their organization to create additional jobs, and have the abilities to guide these women to sustainable employment. Additionally, midwives should be motivated to make fathers a serious part of the pregnancy cycle, have the opportunity to spend sufficient time to discuss the role of fathers, and have abilities such as skills to involve expecting fathers in the pre-natal care.
