DaddyHood Europe

"Being a father is great. But it is also challenging. In today’s western society, as fathers, we are often still the economic provider of the family but increasingly we want to be more involved in the upbringing of our children. This creates pressure and conflicting situations. In many countries we are still being met with surprise and sometimes even suspicion if we are the primary caretaker – in some places, a father walking alone with the stroller is exotic.

Digging deeper into the fatherhood topic, we realized that there is the need for a cross-European organisation that can support fathers with all the issues they might face: societal norms, paternity leave rights, education, etc. We want to build a community of fathers who support each other.

We know that to be a dad who is there for his children is the best gift and the best start in life for them. At the same time, it is very fulfilling and rewarding for the fathers. When parenthood is shared, partners are normally feeling happier and healthier. Besides that, this leads to a more equal society. This is what is driving our organisation."
