Information center on women’s health opened in Strpce (RTK)
An information center for women’s health is being opened in the Municipality of Strpce. This center, according to a press release issued by NGO Action for Mothers and Children, will bring women from different ethnicity together to share their experiences of being a mother. The center also will offer group and individual advice to women on nutrition during pregnancy, stages of pregnancy, physical and psychological preparation for childbirth, newborn care and breastfeeding. Sabri Murseli, director of the Department of Health and Social Welfare in the Municipality of Strpce, said the existence of such centers is more than necessary in order to support women and their partners during pregnancy and parenthood. The opening of this center was supported by the United Nations Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK), while the activities of this center are supported by the donations collected from the fundraising event "Let’s dance for Mothers and Children". The program for Information Centers on Women’s Health is also supported by the World Health Organization and Solidar Suisse Kosovo.
