Maryam Mohamed Hussein, Minister of State for the Ministry of Work and Social Affairs, Director of the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, officials from the Banadir Regional Government, senior members of International Organizations working on health issues, doctors, the health community, and other dignitaries.<\/p>\n<p>The aim was to encourage mothers to breastfeed their newborns to boost their immune system, breast milk contains all the nutrients a baby needs for the first 6 months.

ears.<\/p>\n<p>This year&#8217;s motto adopted by the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare of the Federal Government of Somalia is &#8220;Giving working women the opportunity to breastfeed their
