Naomi,
I am interested in this theme because I am one of the coordinators for MAMI
- Movimento Allattamento Materno Italiano (Italian Breastfeeding Movement).
Here in Italy, nothing much has happened, even though the Inocenti
Declaration was signed right here in Florence! Here are some articles that
might be of interest:
Periodical Author Title Year Vol & num Pag.
Baby Milk Action Why the UK baby milk law must be changed 1997-12
Baby Milk Action European breastfeeding rates 1996?
Baby milk Action Update Over 8000 Baby Friendly hospitals 1997;20:8
BMJ Taylor A Violation of the international code of marketing of breastmilk
substitutes: Prevalence in four countries 1998-4-11;316:1117-22

Initiative -- educating for success... the first of a two part series

Another place to look would be the UNICEF gopher pages where they have all
the issues of the BFHI News. The address is:
gopher://gopher.unicef.org:70/11/.s2pubdocs
UNICEF has also published an update on the BFHI called "1997 Progress
Report: Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative" which can be requested form your
local UNICEF office or from New York or Geneva.
Another good resource is Baby Milk Action: http://www.gn.apc.org/babymilk/
They have published a list of Code implementation by country that you can
order from them. They also have copies of "Cracking the Code" available.
Good luck and let me know what you find out.
Elise
