The World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA) is a global network of individuals
& organisations concerned with the protection, promotion & support of breastfeeding worldwide.
WABA action is based on the Innocenti Declaration, the Ten Links for Nurturing the Future and the
Global Strategy for Infant & Young Child Feeding. WABA is in consultative status with UNICEF & an NGO
in Special Consultative Status with the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations (ECOSOC).

he WABA Global Forum provides an opportunity for exchange of experiences, knowledge, skills and information on breastfeeding, young child nutrition, children's health, women's rights and children's rights. Whereas traditionally health and nutrition have been approached mainly from a scientific angle, this Forum attempts to place these concerns within their social, economic and ethical context as well. It is a rallying point to move beyond the Innocenti Declaration goals and to widen the issue of young child nutrition to its ethical and practical dimensions which include the rights of children and women.
