6 months of maternity leave for both parents, Macron announces new measures in
President Emmanuel Macron

President Emmanuel Macron announced the introduction of a six-month "paternity leave" for both parents. The decision of the head of the Elise came on the day when the National Institute of Statistics, reflected a sharp decline in the birth rate, the lowest since the post-war period (less than 700 thousand children born in 2023).

Macron underlined that the birth rate "is falling, also because male and female infertility is progressing, causing many men and women to suffer." He also announced a "great plan against this plague".

"After the extension of paternity leave, I strongly believe that the introduction of a new maternity leave can be a useful element of such a strategy" for restarting births.

Despite crises such as the war in Ukraine and the Middle East, he told hundreds of French and international journalists in the Elysee Ballroom: "I am convinced that we have all the qualities to succeed. I am convinced that our history of progress is not over. and that our children will live better tomorrow than we do today".

According to the Institute of Statistics, in 2023, births were just 678,000, a drop of 6.6% from the previous year, the lowest level since the end of the Second World War.

The presidential objective of a "stronger France" also includes schools, the economy and security. The reforms will be carried out in the coming months by the new government of Gabriel Attal.

Among the measures announced for schools and young people, Macron is considering regulating the use of screens for children, based on a report of experts gathered last week. He wants to strengthen the teaching of "civic education" in school, but also theater and art history.

Macron has long insisted on security, the fight against radical Islam and deepening the process of community integration. "A more united and more sovereign Europe" is an "indispensable element" for France's future, he declared, recalling important results achieved at the EU level, such as the NextGenerationEu recovery plan.
