#Breastfeeding is easier when mothers have support. As #WorldBreastfeedingWeek starts today, @WHO and @UNICEF call for: 1) countries to invest in programmes and policies that support breastfeeding, including reliable, empathetic healthcare support; 2) governments and employers to ensure family-friendly workplaces, with paid maternity leave, breastfeeding spaces and breaks, as well as access to affordable, high-quality childcare; 3) countries to develop and enforce laws to restrict the marketing of breast-milk substitutes, with monitoring to routinely report Code violations. @unicefchief and my full statement: who.int/news/item/31-0…

“When profits are threatened, some companies deliberately undermine public health policies, including WHO guidance, through lobbying, legal threats, ineffective self-regulation, distorting evidence, and concealing their practices," @McHardyJuliette quoting @DrTedros

🚨Publication "More than half of deaths in Ireland are caused by four harmful commodities: tobacco, alcohol, fossil fuels, and unhealthy foods. Commercial actors [...] are a key driver for ill-health." Proud to co-author this piece led by @MIALONMelissa bjgpopen.org/content/early/…

Clarisse Agbegnenou has been one of the French athletes advocating for better facilities for #breastfeeding athletes at the Paris Olympics. She is clearly showcasing you can be the top of your game whilst also continuing to breastfeed your child. bit.ly/3vC2VI4

Very excited to be hosting a coffee afternoon tomorrow in Leinster House to talk to Irish politicians about the WBTi-Ireland findings and the importance of protecting, promoting, & supporting breastfeeding. Thanks to @unicefireland for supporting and funding this work (1/2).

In humanitarian emergencies, breastfeeding is critical to child survival. We support the Operational Guidance for Infant & Young Child Feeding in Emergencies (IYCF) which outlines evidence-based actions to safeguard the health of infants & young children in emergencies.

Watch out. Junk food marketing is everywhere. Learn what can be done to get it out of children’s faces.

Excellent @RTEBrainstorm article by BFLGI member @LizOSullivanPhD and her academic colleagues. The high cost of infant formula is a huge concern for so many families.
Liz O'Sullivan@LizOSullivanPhD

We need to see some leadership on the issue of infant formula pricing. Supermarket points, vouchers, or promotions are not an equitable or sustainable solution to the rising prices of infant formula. Families and children are the ones who will suffer unless govt controls prices.

Check out the Green Feeding Tool 👇’The Tool calculates the carbon and water footprints of commercial milk formula (CMF) and helps illustrate the carbon offset that could be achieved by increasing breastfeeding and reducing commercial milk formula use. nceph.anu.edu.au/research/proje…
