About The Fathering Project:

Our mission

Research shows that more effective fathering means a generation of kids with happier, healthier futures.

We’re working to inspire and equip dads and father figures to be the best parents they can be, for the benefit of kids.

“Having a dad that inspired me to work and live to my potential; to make choices so that you get up in the morning and enjoy what you do is a gift that is constantly with me.”

Prof Fiona Wood AM, a Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon in the area of burns and scar management

Our Partners

In the spirit of Reconciliation, The Fathering Project acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of this country, and their connection to land, water and community. We pay our respect to them, their cultures and customs, and to Elders past, present and emerging.
