Joining ESAH

Equality Starts at Home (ESAH) is a not-for-profit campaign which has a vision of a world where equality at home is a reality for all. Our mission is to shift mind-sets and change behaviours to enable a greater sharing of emotional and domestic labour.

ESAH was set up by Four Co-Founders in June 2020 in response to the urgent challenge of inequality in the home – aggravated during the COVID-19 lockdown. ESAH believes the unequal sharing of household responsibilities is bad for women, men and all of society.

We are looking for volunteers in the areas below who will be instrumental in taking ESAH to the next stage of development.

If you’re interested in any elements of the following roles, we strongly encouraged you to apply:
