Parents' notions and experiences of parenthood are addressed in the programme, but the use of MANU depends on the parents' attendance and how it is organised and locally offered. The study suggests that MANU has the possibility to create a space for parents to reflect and prepare. However, for MANU to be universal as intended and to reach both mother and father the facilitation of sessions could be revisited.
