Breast is best
Breastfeeding is more than just a means of feeding – it is a lifeline that positively impacts the nation’s health.
World Breastfeeding Week (1-7 August) aims to promote and support breastfeeding globally, with the World Health Assembly (WHA) aiming to increase exclusive breastfeeding of infants up to the age of six months to 50% as part of its Global Action Plan to Address Malnutrition. This is especially critical in South Africa, where malnutrition and food insecurity is a major concern.
Recognising the challenges that working mothers face, AfroCentric has private, comfortable mother rooms equipped for nursing moms to breastfeed and express milk.
