#264 | WHAT WOULD MATRESCENCE-INFORMED PUBLIC POLICY LOOK LIKE? | WITH SARAH CLEGGETT
Manage episode 415845529 series 2990993
What would our world be like if we had matrescence-informed public policy? What would those policies even look like? And what impact would they have on our experience of becoming a mother - and the wider experience of parenthood?
In this week's episode, mama of 2 Sarah Cleggett share's her own personal experience of becoming a mother, and how that has led her to not only establishing a Social Enterprise-based Mother's Community Group 'Middle Ground Motherhood', but recently completing her Masters on Matrescence-based public policy.
Sarah's research highlights how patriarchal and neoliberal motherhood concepts in Australia underestimate the profound changes of motherhood, meaning "mothers are left without the structural support they require to thrive." Sarah was also a part of a national study on parents working conditions, pregnancy leave and return to work, which you can read here.
Ultimately, this episode highlights how one mother's experience can spark a commitment to making a difference in the world, and impact an understanding of Matrescence and mother-led support policies would flow on to the rest of society - and the world.

SARAH IS ONE OF OUR GUEST EXPERTS AT OUR NEXT 'WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS TO KNOW' SERIES.
