People are having no children, fewer children or waiting longer to have children. What can politicians be doing to make people feel more confident in growing their families? And what does this have to do with reproductive rights? 

This episode of The Dilemma was made possible with the support of The Victorian Women’s Trust. For almost 40 years, the Victorian Women’s Trust has pushed for critical social change to support women, girls and gender-diverse people to thrive. But there’s so much more to be done. Stand with the Victorian Women’s Trust in shaping a better tomorrow by making a contribution to the Equal Futures Endowment Fund and leave a lasting gift for generations of feminists.
