A study on implementing the Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative in hospitals across Canada showed improved breastfeeding support and outcomes. These successes will guide ongoing efforts to scale up Implementation across the country.

Breastfeeding Committee For Canada | Baby Friendly Initiative's Michelle LeDrew & #MCHPResearch’s Dr. Nathan Nickel worked with hospitals to adapt WHO's Baby-Friendly Initiative, addressing disparities in support & low breastfeeding rates. Successes will guide expansion into other settings. #NBW2025

During Canada's #NationalBreastfeedingWeek, we call on governments across the country to invest in health systems that support #breastfeeding families.
Breastfeeding saves lives: it's a baby's first vaccine, protecting against diseases like diarrhoea & pneumonia.
