O4) To increase the awareness of community/stakeholders on the problems & needs of mothers in postpartum period This project, targeting to provide psychological and pedagogical support to new mothers, necessitates multifaceted expertise on this topic. Relieving postpartum depression is important for the baby’s and mother’s emotional regulation, that necessitates different phases of diagnosing, distinguishing, treating and reducing the effects of depression. On the other hand, pedagogical support cannot be considered simply as monitoring the infant’s mood and emotions. According to attachment theory, an infant’s development represents the infant’s relationship history with her primary caregiver, mostly their mothers, in consistent and responsive ways. That is why secure attachment between mother and baby embodying different dynamics, like good nutrition, sleep and playing. These all require special and scientific expertise. Moreover, support materials that this project targets to provide, should be disseminated in easily accesible and sustainable ways, like mobile application. These brought us to elaborate this project to build knowledge from the different experiences of mothers and to share new strategies to help these persons and the professionals that work with them.
