inhabitants, provide basic services to the constituents;

WHEREAS, “Article XIII, Section 11 of the Constitution provides that the State shall adopt an

WHEREAS, adequate and proper nutrition is an important and universally recognized component of
each child’s right to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health as provided for in the
United Nation Convention on the Rights of the Child, which the Philippine Senate, in accordance with
its constitutional prerogative under Section 21, Article VII, of the 1987 Constitution, ratified on July
26, 1990, and which mandates the Philippines to implement various international agreements
relevant to Infant and Young Child Feeding;
WHEREAS, the use of breast milk which is widely recognized as the best nutrition for babies,
promotes the development of emotional bonding between the mother and child, bestows upon the
newborn infant protection against infection, provides the mother natural contraception after delivery,
and protects the mothers from closely spaced pregnancy;
WHEREAS, breastfeeding is the most far-reaching and the least costly strategy for the alleviation of
property;
WHEREAS, with the resultant healthier population and the reduction in infant and under-five
mortality rates, the country will be closer in reaching its targets for Sustainable Development Goals;
WHEREAS, the implementation of a workplace lactation program which includes “Rooming-In” area
to all government and private health and non-health facilities for the breastfeeding practices gives an
opportunity to working mothers to express their duties by breastfeeding in privacy. Furthermore, this
will help ensure optimum health and proper nutrition of their infants even while at work;
WHEREAS, mothers want to nurture their child and our own policies in the country are in full
support to do so;
