Breastfeeding and nutrition counseling in emergencies.
In the event of a natural disaster or war, there is a huge risk of malnutrition among people affected by the crisis, especially among the youngest. Therefore, ensuring proper nutrition of infants and young children is especially important when there is no food on store shelves, when humanitarian aid provided by various organizations provides products that are not always appropriate for infants and small children, when there is no access to clean water and hygiene products when nursing mothers lose their milk. During the 4th webinar entitled: “Lactation and nutritional counseling in crisis situations.” as part of the series “Supporting mothers in feeding children in crisis”, Jodine Chase, Dr. Agnieszka Bzikowska-Jura and Malwina Okrzesik will not only present the most important assumptions regarding the nutrition of infants and young children in emergency situations, but also advise what lactation counseling should look like and how plan a supplementary diet for infants after 6 months of age in these special situations.
