Participation in Rally for World Breastfeeding Week – 1st August
As part of the observance of World Breastfeeding Week, the students of the Department of Home Science actively participated in a rally conducted on 1st August. The rally aimed to raise awareness among college students and the public about the importance of exclusive breastfeeding for both mother and child.
Carrying placards and chanting slogans, the students walked through the college grounds and surrounding areas, drawing attention to the vital role of breastfeeding in improving child health, reducing infant mortality, and enhancing mother-child bonding. Some of the key slogans included:
-
“Breastmilk: The first vaccine for your child!”
-
“Support breastfeeding – A healthier future begins today!”
-
“Exclusive breastfeeding for the first 6 months: A mother’s gift for a lifetime.”
The rally was both informative and impactful, with enthusiastic participation from students who showcased their dedication to spreading nutritional awareness. Faculty members guided the students throughout the rally, ensuring the messages reached the target audience effectively.
This activity served as an excellent practical extension of classroom learning, helping students apply their knowledge in real-life advocacy and public health promotion.
