WHO Executive Board Meeting: Biennial Reporting on the International Code under threat

This LLL Petition on Sunsetting of the Code got 22,000 endorsers for IBFAN’s statements on the Sunsetting of reporting on the Code and our Counter Call on the BMS Call to Action. WHO Assistant Director Dr Yamamoto, and senior staff  have assured us of WHO’s strong commitment to the Code and the protection of breastfeeding and its wish to work together with IBFAN for the protection of child health.  Dr Yamamoto stated that if the unintended consequence of a broader governance issue is implied as a lack of WHO’s support for the Code, that needs to be corrected.
