UNICEF and WHO asked countries to give families better breastfeeding support. Breastfeeding provides nutrition and can strengthen a baby's immunity. It also offers health benefits for mothers. Global rates are improving, but progress is not equal everywhere. Some families still cannot reach skilled advice or helpful community services.
The organizations suggested stronger support in hospitals and local communities. They also called for paid maternity leave and supportive workplace policies. Good counselling can help mothers make informed choices. Continued care is especially important in emergencies and low-income areas. The goal is a healthier start for each child and better care for mothers.
