SBS Supports Breastfeeding Week 2025.

    As the lead organization for Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) in Samoa, this week staff at the Samoa Bureau of Statistics proudly wore yellow to mark World Breastfeeding Week, showing our support for the health and rights of mothers and babies in Samoa.

    The theme for 2025, “Enabling Breastfeeding: Making a Difference for Working Parents”, reminds us of the need for supportive environments including in the workplace to empower families and ensure every child gets the best start in life.

    We stand together with our colleagues across government and the community in promoting a healthy start for every child.
