The AGF advocates for the interests and rights of families in politics and society and promotes the dialogue between the associations and interest groups of families and those responsible for family policy. In addition, the AGF supports the cooperation of organizations active in family policy at the national and international level. Six major family organizations have joined forces for this purpose.
