The conference will feature prominent speakers, including the famous obstetrician, Michel Odent, one of the most notable proponents of natural childbirth and initiation of breastfeeding within one hour of birth.
According to organizers, this type of conference aimed at recovering the role of breastfeeding because mothers do not breastfeed just because it is better and protects against infection, but also because it is a right and a part of the life cycle of women to which they not want to give, in fact every day is increasing.
Breastfeeding is not only beneficial to the child but also for the mother to the environment and for society in general, hence the importance of this conference that examines the social commitment.
