CÚRAM – Closing the Gender Care Gap in Europe’s Workplaces

About

The CÚRAM project aims to close the gender care gap in workplaces across Europe. By increasing awareness and understanding among employers, HR professionals, and business leaders, we aim to promote equitable dual-career, dual-carer policies in line with the EU Work-Life Balance Directive.
The CÚRAM project provides practical tools and resources to help businesses create family-friendly, flexible working environments that support employees with caregiving responsibilities. Through tailored training programmes, capacity-building workshops, and awareness-raising resources, the project aims to empower companies to implement policies that foster work-life balance, gender equality, and employee well-being.
