APILAM "Breastfeeding in public” prize

With the "Breastfeeding in public” prize, the non profit organization APILAM, which runs the e-health project e-lactancia.org, and the breastfeeding museum telasmos.org, seeks to contribute to the normalization and visibility of breastfeeding in public places: in a shop, a bank, a conference, a public swimming pool, a waiting-room, at a circus, in an airport, at a demonstration, in a queue at the market or a polling station, in a television studio, in Parliament…

It is little wonder that many women and their babies are discriminated against for exercising a right, to breastfeed in public.

The “Marina Alta Breastfeeding” photo competition has 16 prizes sponsored by associations, city councils, businesses and breastfeeding support groups.  

Photos will be accepted until 31st March and the prizes will be given on June 2017.  The rules of the competition and the participation form can be found here and here.

We require funding in order to continue our research and dissemination. You can collaborate with the project by donating to e-lactancia.org
