Start Date: 31/03/2018- End Date: 30/09/2019


Project Lead(s): Ewenat Woldearegai

St. Paul's Hospital Millennium Medical College will establish a novel, affordable, breast milk expression support project in the workplace of selected Commercial Bank of Ethiopia branches in Addis Ababa. This project will include considerations for adequate facilities, break time, transportation, as well as training on breast milk expression, storage and use. This program has the potential to increase women's choice and empower them to continue breastfeeding after returning to work, if they choose to.
