Ambience

October 2022

A gathering took place and added to the warm autumn ambiance.

A group of people gathered for a high school reunion. As they walked through the wooded countryside, old friends and former classmates talked about the future and of the shared memories of their place of learning.

 Oct 7th - BLog 1

The celebratory event mentioned above may find a convergence with the one below on the topic of education.

Coordinated by World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA) the yearly celebration of World Breastfeeding Week (WBW) 2022 is under the thematic: “Step up for Breastfeeding—Educate and Support” (1).

The commencement of WBW, which takes place in the eighth or tenth month of the year-depending on geolocation, may whet one’s appetite to read up on the theme and take note of the calendar of related events and activities in the area.

Readings on the subject may attract the attention of those working on the implementation of quality improvement projects such as Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative (BFHI)/Baby Friendly Initiative (BFI). The source material may be used to develop a deepened understanding of one’s role in supporting the mother/parent-infant dyad on their nursing journey.

Engaging in the celebrations pertaining to WBW may represent a heightened opportunity to upskill; by participating in various formative activities in the community, attending continuing education seminars, or sharing thoughts with colleagues after reading different messages posted online in reference to WBW 2022, for example.

Sending out good wishes on WBW may help communicate messages of empowerment.

May the promotion of collective empowerment define your journey
