Why This Petition Matters
In many countries, women are forced to choose between their careers and starting a family due to the lack of paid maternity leave. This petition calls on the United Nations to establish a global standard for at least 16 weeks of paid maternity leave. Supporting mothers supports families, communities, and the economy. Let us stand together for the rights of working mothers everywhere.
