“I never received a gift for giving birth to a child,” says the mother of five after opening the mama-baby Kit from UNICEF.
(...) Improving maternal and newborn healthcare in the densely populated camps has been a priority for UNICEF and others. (...) Holding her baby at her home in Camp-8, she says, “the neighbours always ask me where I found such nice clothes and I tell them that these were given to me as a gift from UNICEF.”
She adds that the mosquito net has ensured that both herself and the baby get a good night’s sleep.

Breastfeeding : the first and most precious gift
By starting to breastfeed within an hour of birth, a mother is gifting her child the first and most precious possible gift that significantly reduces the risk of infant death within the fragile first 28 days of life. Unfortunately, less than half of the world’s newborns benefit from the most impactful and cost-effective intervention for saving their lives: exclusive breastfeeding.
