(Japan) Nearly 70 percent of people who are interested in organ transplants learned about the issue from consent forms on driver’s licenses and health insurance cards, according to a Cabinet Office survey. The consent forms were included on licenses and cards issued after the revised Organ Transplant Law took effect in July 2010. “The results this time likely reflect the fact that driver’s licenses have been renewed over the course of 10 years following the legal revision,” said an official of the health ministry’s medical transplant promotion bureau.

725-726-39 Among the 24 countries surveyed, only six show any significant month-over-month change in their National Index score (Click for Details)

 Ipsos’ Global Consumer Confidence Index in the first month of 2022 reads at 48.6, exactly as it did in January 2020 before the COVID-19 pandemic. The global index is virtually unchanged from last month (down just two-tenths of one point) despite the rapid spread of the Omicron variant across the world. Among the 24 countries surveyed, only six show any significant month-over-month change in their National Index score (at least +/- 1.5 points) and none of these changes exceeds two points.

 On the occasion of the International Day of Education on January 24th, we would like to share nine key findings on what MENA citizens think about education in their countries. This data is based on our most recent sixth wave of surveys that was conducted in seven Arab countries during the COVID-19 pandemic, between July 2020 and April 2021. In all countries surveyed, satisfaction with the education system fell during the Covid-19 pandemic, with less than half of the population being satisfied with the education system in March 2021.

Almost A Quarter Of Parents In Germany Say That The Pandemic Has Pushed Them To Their Limits When It Comes To Raising Children (23 Percent)

GERMANY1Corona has pushed fathers in Germany to their limits when it comes to raising children than mothersThe corona pandemic has had a particularly difficult effect on parents with lockdowns, working from home and school and daycare closures. Almost a quarter of parents in Germany say that the pandemic has pushed them to their limits when it comes to raising children (23 percent). Fathers say this more often than mothers (25 percent vs. 21 percent of mothers).

Corona has pushed parents to their limits

However, only 7 percent of parents say that their relationship with their own children has deteriorated since the pandemic. 13 percent say that the ratio has even improved since then, and for 76 percent it is unchanged.

For 13 percent of parents, the relationship with their children has improved

20 percent of all parents in Germany say that if they could make a decision again today, they would not want to have any more children. 73 percent disagree.

Parenthood and professional advancement - more difficult for women to implement 

A large majority of German fathers do not believe that their career advancement would have been better without the birth of their children (70 percent). Among mothers, on the other hand, only 47 percent say this (vs. 58 percent of the general population). However, a comparative survey from 2016 shows that, almost six years ago, mothers were even more likely to agree that their professional advancement would have been better without the birth of their children: 44 percent of mothers in Germany made this statement in 2016, and are still saying so in 2022 34 percent.

Career advancement went better without children?

Just over half of the parents surveyed (53 percent) can currently understand that there are mothers who sometimes regret being a mother. Fathers can understand this better than mothers themselves (56 percent vs. 51 percent of mothers).
