World Breastfeeding Week 2022 (WBW 2022) From the 1st of August till the 7th of August

Breastfeeding is essential to post-pandemic sustainable development initiatives because it improves nutrition, assures food security, and decreases inequality within nations. The subject aligns with the first thematic area of the WBW-SDG 2030 campaign, which emphasizes the connections between breastfeeding and optimal nutrition, food security, and eliminating inequality.

World Breastfeeding Week (WBW) is a global awareness-raising and engagement campaign for breastfeeding-related issues. WBW began in 1992 with annual topics such as healthcare systems and women in the workplace. WBW has been associated with the Sustainable Development Goals since 2016. In 2018, a resolution from the World Health Assembly supported WBW as an essential breastfeeding promotion tool.
