IBFAN, ENCA and the WPHNA joined the Codex Committee on Food Hygiene the UN food standard-setting body whose Guidelines and standards form the basis of national legislation.
In 2025, the global prevalence of obesity among school-age children and adolescents exceeded underweight for the first time. This dramatic shift in the face of malnutrition jeopardizes the health and future potential of children, communities and nations.
The notion that the current corporate-led food system is not only safe, but is the only feasible way forward – must be challenged and is why IBFAN takes an active part in negotiations at Codex, the UN Global standards setting body
We are a global network which has worked tirelessly to combat misleading commercial promotion and protect breastfeeding, a vital pillar for children’s well-being.
