عَقَدَتْ مُنَظَّمَةُ الصِّحَّةِ العالَمِيَّةِ وَمُنَظَّمَةُ الأُمَمِ المُتَّحِدَةِ لِلطُّفُولَةِ، اليُونِيسِفُ، جَلْسَتَيْنِ عَبْرَ الإِنْتَرْنِتِ فِي الرَّابِعِ وَالخامِسِ مِنْ أُغُسْطُسَ ٢٠٢٦. وَكانَتِ الجَلْسَتانِ جُزْءًا مِنْ أُسْبُوعِ الرَّضاعَةِ الطَّبِيعِيَّةِ العالَمِيِّ، الَّذِي يَسْتَمِرُّ مِنَ الأَوَّلِ إِلى السّابِعِ مِنْ أُغُسْطُسَ.
وَناقَشَ المُشارِكُونَ أَدِلَّةً جَدِيدَةً عَنْ طُرُقِ دَعْمِ الرَّضاعَةِ الطَّبِيعِيَّةِ. وَقَدَّمَتِ المُنَظَّمَتانِ مَلَفًّا مُحَدَّثًا يُوَضِّحُ لِلحُكُوماتِ وَالمانِحِينَ سَبَبَ زِيادَةِ التَّمْوِيلِ لِهذِهِ البَرامِجِ.
وَبِحَسَبِ المُنَظَّمَتَيْنِ، تُعَدُّ الرَّضاعَةُ الطَّبِيعِيَّةُ طَرِيقَةً مُهِمَّةً لِحِمايَةِ صِحَّةِ الطِّفْلِ. لَكِنَّ كَثيرًا مِنَ الأُمَّهاتِ وَالأُسَرِ لا يَحْصُلونَ عَلى الخِدْماتِ وَالمُساعَدَةِ اللَّتَيْنِ يَحْتاجونَ إِلَيْهِما.
وَدَعَتِ المُنَظَّمَتانِ إِلى تَقْديمِ نَصائِحَ مُتَخَصِّصَةٍ فِي المَرافِقِ الصِّحِّيَّةِ وَالمُجْتَمَعاتِ. كَما طَلَبَتا إِجازَةَ أُمومَةٍ مَدْفوعَةً وَسِياساتٍ داعِمَةً لِلْأُمَّهاتِ فِي أَماكِنِ العَمَلِ. وَقالَتا إِنَّ الاِسْتِثْمارَ فِي هذِهِ الخُطُواتِ يُمْكِنُ أَنْ يُحَسِّنَ صِحَّةَ الأُمَّهاتِ وَالأَطْفالِ.

WHO and UNICEF Call for Support for Breastfeeding
The World Health Organization and the United Nations Children’s Fund, UNICEF, held two online sessions on 4 and 5 August 2026. The sessions were part of World Breastfeeding Week, which runs from 1 to 7 August.
Participants discussed new evidence about ways to support breastfeeding. The two organizations presented an updated brief explaining to governments and donors why funding for these programmes should be increased.
According to the organizations, breastfeeding is an important way to protect a child’s health. However, many mothers and families do not receive the services and help that they need.
The organizations called for specialist advice in health facilities and communities. They also requested paid maternity leave and policies that support mothers in workplaces. They said that investment in these steps can improve the health of mothers and children.
