Description:

As a result of the significant disruption that is being caused by the COVID-19 pandemic we are very aware that many researchers will have difficulty in meeting the timelines associated with our peer review process during normal times. Please do let us know if you need additional time. Our systems will continue to remind you of the original timelines but we intend to be highly flexible at this time. Featured research article: Are our babies off to a healthy start? The state of implementation of the Global strategy for infant and young child feeding in Europe Despite unanimous support from the Member States of the World Health Assembly for implementation of the Global Strategy for Infant and Young Child Feeding, the authors鈥?analysis of individual country reports from 18 European countries indicates that European governments are not doing enough to fulfil this commitment, and need to do more to protect, promote and support sound infant and young child feeding practices.

All articles have been subject to the journal鈥檚 normal peer review process and the collection is not sponsored. Aims and scope Breastfeeding is recognized as an important public health issue with enormous social and economic implications. Infants who do not receive breast milk are likely to experience poorer health outcomes than breastfed infants; mothers who do not breastfeed increase their own health risks.Publications on the topic of breastfeeding are wide ranging. Articles about breastfeeding are currently published journals focused on nursing, midwifery, paediatric, obstetric, family medicine, public health, immunology, physiology, sociology and many other topics. In addition, electronic publishing allows fast publication time for authors and Open Access ensures the journal is easily accessible to readers.International Breastfeeding Journal encompasses all aspects of breastfeeding. The journal addresses the need for a high quality multi-disciplinary journal in the field.In order to help women breastfeed successfully, there is a need to understand both the physiology of lactation and the social and cultural context within which breastfeeding occurs. The journal addresses all of these aspects, including identifying women who are at increased risk of not breastfeeding; the impediments to breastfeeding and the health effects of not breastfeeding for infants and their mothers; interventions to increase breastfeeding initiation and duration; and the management of breastfeeding problems. Investing in breast milkIn early August 2019, Australian health ministers quietly released a National Breastfeeding Strategy (ANBS). Its bold vision is a society which 鈥榲alues鈥?breastfeeding and doubles its breastfeeding rates. Yet more breastfeeding does not come free. Are governments 鈥榳illing to pay鈥? 鈥淏reastfeeding in Public鈥?/a>, a new series of articles from theInternational Breastfeeding Journal, aims to highlight the issues surrounding breastfeeding in public throughout the world. The series has been guest-edited by Petra Bueskens of the University of Melbourne, Sally Dowling of the University of the West of England and Fiona Giles of the Univer鈥嬧€嬧€嬧€嬧€嬧€嬧€媠ity of Sydney. In a recent conversation, Fiona Giles explained the inspiration behind the series, and why it is important to discuss the topic. The transcript has been edited for clarity.
