Markets are the heartbeat of our communities, and they can also be powerful spaces to support breastfeeding mothers.

Almost 1 in 5 infants under six months in Sierra Leone are still given water alongside breastmilk, even though breastmilk alone provides all the water and nutrients a baby needs during the first six months of life.

Together with Ministry of Health, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, market leaders and communities, UNICEF is helping create more breastfeeding-friendly marketplaces, promoting family-friendly workplace practices, raising awareness, and strengthening support for mothers.

Breastfeeding is everyone's responsibility. From families and health workers to employers, market leaders and community members, we all have a role to play in helping children survive, grow and thrive.

Different contexts. Common aspirations. 💙

Young people have ideas that matter.
For Alimamy, meaningful participation means having the opportunity to contribute those ideas, shape solutions and turn evidence into action for children.

💧 Safe WASH is essential to quality health care.

UNICEF is supporting the Government of Sierra Leone to operationalize the Water and Sanitation for Health Facility Improvement Tool (WASH FIT) to strengthen water, sanitation and hygiene services in health care facilities.

WASH FIT helps facilities identify risks, prioritize improvements and track progress towards safer, cleaner and more dignified care.

Because every patient, mother, newborn, child and health worker deserves care in a safe and healthy environment.

Today, UNICEF joined the Government of Sierra Leone, UN agencies and partners to mark International Youth Day 2026 with young people across the country. 🇸🇱

We are proud to support young people to have a voice, participate in decisions that affect their lives and access the opportunities they need to realise their potential.

Whether in the spaces where they learn, the communities where they live or the digital spaces where they connect and express themselves, young people deserve to feel safe, included and supported.

Every young person matters. Every voice matters. 💙

Different contexts. Common aspirations. 💙

Elizabeth believes young people shouldn’t have to wait for tomorrow to make a difference. They have ideas, energy and perspectives that matter today.

A Youth Advocate from Western Area Rural, she is calling for young people to have the opportunities, support and space to contribute meaningfully to the decisions that shape their lives and communities.

This , let’s listen to young people and recognise the role they are already playing in shaping change.

Breastfeeding gives babies the best start in life, providing the nutrition they need to grow, develop and thrive.

But mothers need the right information, guidance and support to breastfeed successfully.

As comes to a close today, let’s keep supporting mothers to breastfeed, so every baby can get the best start in life.
