Re-Scripting Gender, Work, Family, and Care
A project of Better Life Lab
Challenges related to work and family are common, but relatable and holistic representation of these circumstances in entertainment media is not. Re-Scripting Gender, Work, Family, and Care advises creators and executives on how to tell rich, meaningful stories that explore these topics. We also amplify television shows, films, and online media projects with thoughtful treatments of work, family, care, and gender dynamics.
