Mothers are looking after children in 10.3 hours of the day on average during #lockdown. This is 2.3 hours more than fathers.

They are doing housework in 1.7 more hours of the day than fathers.
Fathers are now taking on a greater share of household responsibilities than they were before the #Covid_19 crisis.
