This course provides two hours of education on the WHO’s International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes, as required by IBLCE for first-time certificants and recertifiers.
As breastfeeding advocates, we have a strong responsibility to promote breastfeeding as the ideal way to feed a baby, even in extreme circumstances such as natural disasters or other emergencies. After attending this program, you’ll be able to recognize the impact of disasters on infant feeding, how to offer guidance to parents and community planners before, during and after the disaster, and the potential risks of free formula distribution. You’ll learn practical tips to help support other professionals and parents through evidence-based practices, policies and programs.
