The improvement, extension and evaluation of “Der FamilienAtlas” (“Hessian Family Atlas”) in the

Hannover on 11 th of March. The success of the revision has been approved by an evaluation.

on the 9 th of July. In each case a well-staffed podium discussed under the title “Everyone wants
dad – fathers between family and job”. More information is available in the internet:
