Abstract

Our study focuses on designated breastfeeding rooms on campus at a leading Australian university. Universities have a growing female staff and student cohort, including breastfeeding women who are legally protected to breastfeed. As part of a wider university initiative to improve gender equity and family friendliness, our study used a walk-through audit to evaluate 11 designated private breastfeeding rooms on campus.
