Organized by the World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action, the World Health Organization and UNICEF, WORLD BREASTFEEDING WEEK – organized annually from 1 to 7 August across 120+ countries – promotes exclusive breastfeeding for the first six months of life. 


The practice is known to bestow multiple health benefits upon a new-born, such as providing critical nutrients, protecting from deadly diseases such as pneumonia and fostering growth and development. 


To celebrate the goal and trigger critical narratives around its awareness and adoption, VOH (Voice of Healthcare) is pleased to invite eminent gynaecologists, public health activists, pharmaceutical companies & other stakeholders connected with this space. 


Over a series of panel discussions, one-on-ones and leadership bytes, we hope to seed and multiply big ideas, experiences and recommendations on this sensitive and significant topic.
