World Breastfeeding Week 2025
August 1–7 | Theme: “Prioritize Breastfeeding: Create Sustainable Support Systems”
At Nourish, we are proud to join the global community in recognizing World Breastfeeding Week 2025. This year’s theme, “Prioritize Breastfeeding: Create Sustainable Support Systems,” calls attention to the critical role that breastfeeding plays in public health and environmental sustainability—and the systems needed to make it possible.
🌿 Prioritize Breastfeeding
Breastfeeding is a vital sign, that offers lifelong health benefits for both babies and parents. This year’s theme urges us to normalize and prioritize breastfeeding as the optimal first food—deserving of protection, promotion, and support at every level of society.
🌿 Create Sustainable Support Systems
While breastfeeding is natural, it is not always easy. Families need consistent, informed, and compassionate support to meet their feeding goals. From healthcare and workplace policies to community and peer support, sustainable systems are essential to ensure breastfeeding is a realistic and accessible option for all families.
🌿Breastfeeding and Sustainability
Breastfeeding is not only a personal health choice—it’s also a sustainable one. It reduces reliance on manufactured feeding alternatives, lowers environmental impact, and contributes to climate resilience. Supporting breastfeeding is a shared responsibility that benefits individual families and our broader world.
At Nourish, we are committed to being part of that solution—by providing expert, evidence-based care and walking alongside families with respect and support. This week, and every week, we celebrate the strength of families and the power of community-centered care 💕
