THE Federal Department of Health is seeking broad community input on its draft of the Australian National Breastfeeding Strategy: 2018 and Beyond.
The Strategy draft document has been developed in partnership with all states and territories, under the auspice of the Australian Health Ministers' Advisory Council (AHMAC).
The project is being led by the Australian Government Department of Health in collaboration with the Breastfeeding Jurisdictional Officers Group, comprised of a range of breastfeeding experts, state representatives, relevant peak bodies, clinical experts, health professionals, and academics.
The Department commissioned an Evidence Check rapid review to inform development of the Strategy and is available along with all relevant documents and the online survey - consultations.health.gov.au.
Interested parties are invited to provide comment on the draft Strategy through the online survey.
The public consultation opened for four weeks from Tue 22 May 2018 and will close at 11.59 pm AEST on Mon 18 Jun 2018.
