This week in my internet radio show (in Spanish) I interviewed Alma Gordillo from Babywearing International, about the Babywearing Week they’re planning for 12th - 18th November.

Although this is the first year they organize this event, there are already plenty of groups and organizations worldwide planning to participate with various activities. I’m still not sure how to take part on the Babywearing Week and surely want to plan at least a get together with other babywearers in Quito.

I pointed to her that there aren’t any groups from Latin America in their list of participants and we agreed that making babywearing remarkable in our cultures would be a great support for those still wearing their babies traditionally and to help people overcome cultural rejection towards indigenous parenting traditions.

Also, nominations are already open for the Babywearing Week 2008 Awards! I have some names rolling…

Have you already planned something for the BW week?
