Step Up for Breastfeeding w/ Jane Cartwright and Nicola Austin: August 1, 2022

New Zealand Breastfeeding Alliance, the NZ College of Midwives and the Paediatric Society of New Zealand have joined forces to remind New Zealanders that successful breastfeeding involves the whole whānau.

World Breastfeeding Week runs from 1-7 August, and aims to highlight the huge benefits that breastfeeding can bring to both the health and welfare of babies, as well as a wider impact on maternal health, focusing on good nutrition, poverty reduction, sustainability and food security.

Joe spoke with Executive Officer of the New Zealand Breastfeeding Alliance Jane Cartwright and Paediatric Society Neonatal Specialist Nicola Austin about what it means to Step Up for Breastfeeding.
