When Aideé Zamorano González had her second child, her boss and colleagues all asked when she would leave her job in Mexico’s automotive industry. Presumably, now that she had two boys to care for, she would stop working.
Ms. Zamorano González didn’t want to quit, but she did leave her job to found Mamá Godín, a social enterprise which evaluates care policies in private sector businesses and advocates for new frameworks to better support mothers in the workplace.
UN News’s Naima Sawaya sat down with Ms. Zamorano González a day after she took part in a panel at the High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development, underway at UN Headquarters in New York.
