How can @neubergerberman equity fund with Nestle SA in the investment portfolio be labeled “sustainable” and receive an ethics rating as “green”? This is so misleading for investors and the public. #greenwashing

Families with babies in neonatal intensive care units in need of human milk bank services also often experience the devastating combination of reduced income and catastrophic health expenditures.

Dr @ndzitina raising the challenge that so many breastfeeding support services are provided by volunteers and organisations do not have long term and sustainable funding, why does this happen? Because breastfeeding is not on the agenda #ABMConf23

Significant & nuanced organization-wide position from @UNICEF on engagements w/ F&B industry. Restates avoidance of all partnerships w/ Code violators and adds ultra-processed food industries. First UN agency, to my knowledge, to articulate so explicitly👏 https://t.co/ssmd67it1Q
