Breastfeeding stamps by Svenska Amningsinstitutet

 

IBFAN INFO is published by the International Baby Food Action Network (IBFAN), a coalition of public interest groups working around the world to reduce infant and young child morbidity and mortality. IBFAN aims to improve the health and well-being of mothers and their children through the protection, promotion and support of breastfeeding and optimal complementary feeding practices, by pressing for full and universal implementation of the International Code and subsequent, relevant WHA Resolutions.
