NLCA 2025 Workshop
The Code: History, Relevance, and Responsibilities
April 1, 2025
3:00-5:00pm Eastern
Program Overview
The International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes (the Code) is a document more relevant now than ever. Aggressive marketing by infant formula manufacturers and feeding bottle companies has invaded the marketplace and social media through digital marketing avenues. Parents are inundated with ads designed to encourage the use of infant formula through making combination feeding seem the norm.
Learn the basics about the history of the Code, its purpose, how companies fail to meet their obligations under the Code, and what you can do to help curb the unethical and egregious marketing practices that infect social media and the marketplace. Join us for this two hour presentation on April 1, 2025, from 3:00-5:00pm Eastern.
