Elianne Elbaum discusses making parenting better

Elianne Elbaum is the Director of the Global Centre at UTEC University in Uruguay and, through this role, she supports tribes and first nation people within their communities. She discusses her experience as a new mother and how she felt 'so alone' and 'left behind' in her world. She compares this to how new mothers are treated within the communities she studies and how she sees parental wellbeing as the key to children's wellbeing.  Elianne has written a short book/essay called 'Making Parenting Better', which considers what developed societies might be like if we moved from a market economy to a care economy.  Elainne can be contacted on Instagram: @Elianne Elbaum or Twitter: @Eli_Elbaum  Making Parenting Better can be purchased via Kindle
