TIMES is a project dedicated to addressing the challenges that time introduces into family dynamics to provide support for informed policy decisions. The main goal of the project is to understand through a survey, time diaries, and survey experiments the division of tasks within couples, considering household chores, childcare, family organization, work, and career. TIMES places the concept of time at the center: both as a limited resource to be allocated to daily activities and as an era of change and evolution.

The study (RCT) aims to assess the prevalence of workplace sexual harassment in emerging sectors in Bangladesh, identify the factors that lead to its occurrence, and examine the impact on the mental health and working performance of those affected. Importantly the study seeks to identify legislative, policy and program interventions that could help address sexual harassment in the workplace. In particular, the study furthers our understanding of the existing formal and informal preventive and mitigation measures against workplace sexual harassment by evaluating and implementing programs that could help reduce workplace-related sexual harassment
