The Global Breastfeeding Collective —a campaign among various international agencies led by the World Health Organization and the United Nations Children’s Fund —recommends that each country should have 70 percent of its infants nurtured by breastfeeding by 2030.
“Breastfed children perform better on intelligence tests and are less likely to be overweight or obese later in life,” WHO was quoted as saying in the GBC’s 2021 Global Breastfeeding Scorecard. Two decades later, an organization called the Human Milk Bank Association of the Philippines was established with the purpose of facilitating access to breast milk.
At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the Department of the Interior and Local Government called the attention of some local governments that included breast milk substitutes in their pandemic relief donations.
