#SwitchTV
In this special World Breastfeeding Week episode on Switch TV, we spotlight the critical role of emergency preparedness in safeguarding breastfeeding mothers, infants, and vulnerable groups during crises.

Moderated by Clementina Ngina, a respected Public Health and Nutrition Consultant, the discussion features Linnet Achieng’, Health Programmes Manager at the Kenya Red Cross Society, who shares how the organization — in collaboration with communities, donors, and the Ministry of Health — is ensuring that breastfeeding is protected, promoted, and supported, even during emergencies like droughts, pandemics, and displacement.

We explore:

How emergencies threaten maternal and child nutrition

The importance of preparedness plans that center infant feeding

Community-based strategies and health systems that ensure continued breastfeeding

Real-life interventions supported by the Kenya Red Cross across Kenya

From disaster relief tents to community health volunteers, this episode highlights how coordinated efforts are making a difference — and why breastfeeding must be a top priority in humanitarian response frameworks.
