What enforcement mechanisms exist to monitor and penalize violations of international breastfeeding marketing codes?
Enforcement of the WHO International Code of Marketing of Breast-milk Substitutes depends largely on national governments.

This is why we need #WHOCode implementation. This ad plays on parental insecurity and vulnerability. Most parents will think more ingredients = better. But this is NOT TRUE. Implied inferiority of โminimum requirements.โ All milks must have all essential evidence-based components

Digital marketing is the new easy frontier for formula companies. In around six months the #VirtualViolationsDetector found almost 3800 entries of breaches to the #WHOCode in Australia. https://t.co/8zaQXxr6k6 @aliveandthrive @CATCH_Tool @CONSTANCECHING4
We know only too well there will be no improvement in Australia's score. In the coming months the Australian Government has the opportunity to change that. Let's hope they do, by replacing ineffective MAIF with effective, enforced legislation. #WHOCode #EndExploitativeMarketing

Lessons here for Australia too. The #WHOCode provides guidance for the protection of #breastfeeding in the face of unscrupulous marketing of infant formula.
This is great news from Ireland - awesome to see these initial steps being taken. @healthgovau @_PHAA_ @OzBreastfeeding @JuliePSmith1 @jenhock13
It is time for countries like Australia to recognise their member state obligations to protect human rights to health - could start by appropriately regulating the commercial milk formula industry. https://t.co/3DXepRxhlE #WHOCode #EndExploitativeMarketing
