Is it true that Childcare is a major barrier to women's career advancement?
Unclear. Two sources partially support the claim: a survey of 120 female managers in Bosnia and Herzegovina found childcare and family obligations among the major obstacles they face, and an Egypt-focused handbook cites the need for childcare as a major barrier. Other items address women's career barriers generally (mentoring, stereotype threat, glass ceiling) without identifying childcare.
