The Infant Milk Substitute (IMS) Act of 1992 was passed to protect and promote breastfeeding in India. The Act prohibits the promotion of infant formula and sets rules around marketing. It bans healthcare facilities from displaying or distributing formula products and samples. It also prohibits direct contact between formula company marketing personnel and mothers. Only healthcare professionals can instruct parents who need to artificially feed, and the instructions must include warnings about the superiority of breastfeeding. An amendment in 2003 allowed dissemination of scientific information about formula only to health workers.
it is uploaded for paramedics & nursing faculties to teach their students & also helps & create awareness about breast feeding practices to decrease the infant mortality rate.

A WABA propôs como slogan esse ano como slogan da Semana Mundial de Aleitamento Materno:
“STEP up for breastfeeding: educate and support”.
Nós traduzimos como: "Fortalecer a Amamentação: Educando".
Colocaremos em evidência a importância da Educação – lato sensu, não apenas as capacitações (treinamentos) específicas de profissionais de saúde.
Em 1999, essa temática já havia sido proposta pela WABA (World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action): “Breastfeeding Education for Life” - Amamentar: Educar para a Vida e a primeira madrinha foi a modelo Luiza Brunet.
O folder será traduzido para o português e assim que estiver pronto publicaremos aqui.
Realizaremos um Seminário preparatório em junho, veja o programa e como se inscrever no site exclusivo do evento:

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
