A critical review of best practice by Fiona McAllister and Adrienne Burgess of the Fatherhood Institute, in association with Jane Kato and Gary Barker of Promundo. 

The Purpose of Fatherhood: Programmes and Policies is to review policies and programmes that promote or facilitate the involvement of fathers and father-figures from the pre-natal period through the first eight years of their children's lives; and to establish evidence of these programmes' potential to impact family violence, child abuse or children's health or learning outcomes.
