No formulaic stand on breastfeeding: Ernest Prakasa at TEDxUbud

video thumbnail
Take one part funny man and one part dedicated father who knows what's best for infant health, and you have Ernest Prakasa, the first Indonesian comic to tour across the country. A year before his tour he co-founded Ayah ASI, the first Indonesian fathers' breastfeeding initiative, to courageously battle the corporations forcing baby formula products on consumers and violating ingredient regulations.

Ernest and Ayah ASI also educate parents that breastfeeding is not only more nutritious for the baby, but it offers an important bonding. They have published the book Catatan Ayah Asi, now in its third printing.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
