How does IFE Core Group work?
• Each member agency key participant
• Until 2004, co-ordination by NGOs, ENN since 2004
• Member agency contribute technically and financially
• Work reflects a much wider network of collaborators

The Mandate
• Not a stand alone initiative– Article 24, Convention on on the Rights of the
Child– UNICEF/WHO Global Strategy on IYCF
(2003)– Innocenti Declaration on IYCF (2005)
• Lancet Child Survival Series - breastfeeding save 13% of U5 deaths worldwide (Jones et al, Lancet 362: 65–71, 2003)
• Breastfeeding protection and support at the cornerstone IFE Core Group work

Point of departure
Much depends on:
• Perceptions and understanding of breastfeeding in the emergency setting
• Existing policies and their implementation by key actors
• Levels of knowledge and practical skills among those actors

…breastfeeding - the last resort?… OR... OR...
• Still weak from the birth, she was forced to breastfeed her 21-month-old child. "I had to, I couldn't give him anything else.“
[Mark Coultan, The Age, New Orleans, September 6, 2005]

Approach adopted by the IFE Core Group
• The devil is in the detail• Concerned with protection and support of:
– breastfed AND non-breastfed infants and young children– complementary feeding in emergencies
• Policy development and implementation • Capacity building in programme management• Capacity building in practical knowledge and skills
– translate into implementation of interventions that support appropriate infant feeding practices

• Instances where suspicious of commercial ventures around IFE
• Proactively promote Ops Guidance and training materials in ‘real time’ emergencies, e.g. Pakistan, Indonesia, Mozambique
• Informing research agendas that have practical implications, e.g Southampton University developing weighing scales for 0-5 years

International Strategy Meeting on IFE
• Oxford, 1-2 Nov, 2006• Funded by UNICEF, IBFAN-GIFA,
CARE USA, organised by ENN– 58 delegates, UN,INGO, academics,
trainers, regional staff (Indonesia, Kenya, India, Mexico, Lebanon)
– to identify key constraints to supporting and protecting appropriate infant feeding practices in emergencies
– come up with strategy directions and practical steps to address these.
– OUTCOME: Practical action points
![Page 19: Infant and Young Child Feeding in Emergencies (IFE) Working Together in Emergencies IFE Core Group Picture removed.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032518/56649cca5503460f94992dd8/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
New level of working together• ENN/IFE Core Group joined the UNICEF-led Inter
Agency Standing Committee (IASC) nutrition cluster• Cluster funding, realise action points
– Development of a UN joint policy on handling milk products underway, coordinated by the Core Group
– Integrate breastfeeding support into guidance and training on the management of severe malnutrition
– Translation of materials– Regional orientation workshop on IFE, Indonesia, 2007
• Broadening our horizons– Other sectors, e.g. reproductive health, and other
players, e.g. donors, media, military

Elements of successful working together
• Money isn’t everything………..• Staying power of individuals and agencies • Fuelled by a strong belief in the need to address
this issue• Consistency and institutional memory amongst
members• Political and strategic thinking combined with
technical expertise and good contact with the field
![Page 21: Infant and Young Child Feeding in Emergencies (IFE) Working Together in Emergencies IFE Core Group Picture removed.](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032518/56649cca5503460f94992dd8/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Room for Improvement• Do more, quicker with funds?• Money talks?
– Million dollar IFE Core Group
• Committed individuals have a tough time institutionalising IFE work
• Notion prevails that breastfeeding is not a priority in early stages of emergency
• Engage with donors - limited – Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC):
Standards on using dairy products in food aid (Aug 2006)– DFID: Humanitarian funding guidelines (due April 2007)
