Dear Colleagues and friends, The World Breastfeeding Week is a good time to announce the slogan for next year's WBW - which will be related to education and breastfeeding - and I'm glad to say that we've sent a message to thousands of people asking about the best slogan and two-thirds of us voted for "BREASTFEEDING: EDUCATION FOR LIFE". Soon we will be able to start to begin planning for how we can mobilize communities, schools and educational institutions of all kinds around this exciting new theme. But, don't forget to send me reports on what you have done this year, so they can be added to our growing website. That way we can share ideas and inspire each other! Join in planning to promote breastfeeding: ecucation for life! Best wishes for a great WBW 1998 as well as WBW 1999! It has been great for me to be the WBW international coordinator and a thrill to get to know so many of you who have been working for so long and so selflessly on behalf of the mothers and babies of the world. Wishing you all the best, Denise Arcoverde WBW Coordinator ================ Email: [log in to unmask] Breastfeeding Online: http://www.elogica.com.br/aleitamento WABA: http://www.elogica.com.br/waba IBFAN: http://www.elogica.com.br/aleitamento/ibfan.htm Personal Site: http://www.geocities.com/HotSprings/Spa/3176 TelFax: 55.81.4327701
