• Educate and inform Irish Society and the childcare sector about the benefits of, and the necessity for gender balance in early years care and education, and lobby for change at policy level
• Informing and supporting men who maybe interestd in a career in the Childcare sector and to enable male workers in Childcare to support each other.
• Lobby for "real" political support to work towards a 5% target for men in childcare in Ireland by 2020.
• Assisting childcare centres who wish to recruit and support male childcare workers.
