Health Education to the World

It’s World Breastfeeding Week!

Breastmilk acts as a baby’s first vaccine and boosts brain development.

But for some mothers, breastfeeding is not easy.

Creating sustainable support systems ensures they do not have to face these challenges alone. This means having access to skilled counselling from trained health workers, workplace policies and facilities that protect their right to breastfeed and community networks that offer ongoing care.

When mothers are supported, they are more likely to initiate and continue breastfeeding, helping babies grow healthy and strong.
