More For all these reasons, the World Bank views the third Millennium Development Goalâto promote gender equality and empower womenâas a central component to its overall mission to reduce poverty and stimulate economic growth.  The Bank has an Operational Policy that spells out its responsibilities in this area, and a strategy to implement this policy.

Our paper is the first to systematically review the epidemiologic evidence of the link between maternal breastfeeding and the risk of childhood leukemia, said Marilyn Kwan, UC Berkeley post-doctoral researcher in epidemiology at the School of Public Health and lead author of the study. We conducted this meta-analysis because the studies that had been conducted previously have been inconclusive and contradictory. Our review of the scientific literature shows that the evidence is definitely pointing towards the benefits of breastfeeding when it comes to the risk for two kinds of childhood leukemia, ALL and AML.
