Every year the World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA) and UNICEF hold what’s called the World Breastfeeding Week (WBW) during the first week of August to promote breastfeeding the world over. The Mother-to-Mother Peer Support (MMPS) group in Facebook that I had joined recently will be holding an event as well in view of the world breastfeeding week.
This event will be on 1st August 2009, at Dewan Kuliah A, USM Campus (opposite CIMB bank) from 9.30 a.m. – 1.30 p.m. Itenaries includes interactive talks on breastfeeding during emergencies as the theme this year is “Breastfeeding: A Vital Emergency Response. Are you Ready?” and games for families. The significant event will be “One-Minute Simultaneous Breastfeeding” throughout the ENTIRE MALAYSIA. Breastfeeding mothers that unable to attend to this event venue may join the “One-Minute Simultaneous Breastfeeding” from the comfort of their home as well.
