World Breastfeeding Week August 1-7, 2011
|
This year's World Breastfeeding Week theme is "Talk to me! Breastfeeding- A 3D Experience."
The theme reviews the importance of communication between many levels (eg girls, women, families, communities, providers) and sectors ( eg home, local and worldwide community, workplace ) through a variety of formats ( written, web, in person discussions) to share knowledge and experience to encourage and support breastfeeding around the world.
An excellent link to read more about the theme and download a free Action folder with many ideas for providers and communities can be found at:
