Providing information to working mothers who breastfeed their child and to their employers about the right to combine breastfeeding and work. If necessary, we can also act as an intermediary between the employee and the employer in case of a dispute;
Providing information to employees about health issues to help them continuing to breastfeed;
Making the community aware of the importance of breastfeeding and promoting laws that help providing women with the best possibilities to breastfeed their child.
