What kind of support did you need during COVID19?

@United Nations @WorldHealthOrganization(WHO) @UNICEF

Feeding with breastmilk substitutes from farm-to-table affects the environment and climate due to its production, packaging, distribution and preparation methods.On the other hand, breastmilk production only requires the additional food that a mother needs to consume, therefore using fewer natural resources and resulting in almost no waste. Breastfeeding is one of the best investments for saving infant lives and improving the health, social and economic development of individuals and nations.

@United Nations @WorldHealthOrganization(WHO) @UNICEF

All women/parents have the right to be supported by society to breastfeed optimally. Support can come from families, communities, health systems and workplaces.

Breastfeeding counselling is a type of support delivered to women/parents and infants, and when breastfeeding counselling is available/accessible to women/parents, the duration and exclusivity of is increased!
