Catchup to do for the U.S.- Only 13% of working mothers have access to paid leave, and 25% of mothers go back to work in 2 weeks after delivery
08/20/2015
Only 13% of working mothers in the U.S. have access to paid leave according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This is far behind European countries. The U.S. and Japan lag far behind Europe in this crucial field. For Japan which needs women to increase the size of the workforce with the demographic trend of aging population, it is critical to have more young women work full time.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
