About WABA Youth
The World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action relies on young advocates to help support and promote breastfeeding in their communities. The WABA Youth Initiative is a global programme open to any and all young people who are interested in reaching out to their community and spreading the word on "Why Breastfeeding Matters!"
Many young people believe that their age and lack of experience prevent them from making a real difference for breastfeeding and mother & child health. On the contrary, young people are already active within the 5 social domains: the family, public sector, school, workplace, and cyberspace. Through these domains, young people have found a number of ways to engage their peers in advocacy and become active participants in the global breastfeeding movement.
