The main scope of the event is breastfeeding awareness, information and promotion.
World Health Organization (WHO) and UNICEF, acknowledging the value of Breastfeeding, established the Initiative “Baby-friendly Hospitals”, by setting the Ten Steps to a Successful Breastfeeding, the embracing of which constitutes the ultimate goal of IASO.
Acknowledging the mother’s priceless offer towards her child and at the same time the indefeasible right of a newborn to breastfeeding – which is the optimal way for exclusive feeding for the first six months of the infant’s life – we, at IASO Maternity and Gynecology Clinic, put significant efforts in the awareness, consciousness, information and promotion of breastfeeding and try to apply the Ten Steps to its Success.
Within the framework of its Social Corporate Responsibility, IASO Group, a point of reference in the field of Obstetrics/Gynecology, proves once more its social awareness and encourages breastfeeding by holding classes, study days and seminars.
