BPNI
was set up with the idea of having an organisation
dedicated to protecting, promoting and supporting
breastfeeding. Today, it is India’s largest
network of this kind, with over 3,007
individual members and 46
organisational members ranging
from NGOs, health
and legal
institutions and professionals
to consumer groups and volunteers
committed to child survival. BPNI is present
in every state in the country, and is now setting
up organisational framework at the district
level. BPNI has a state branch in every state
and 56 functioning
district branches. Our members
are spread over 318
districts. BPNI also initiated
a study of infant feeding practices and implementation
of the IMS Act in 49
districts all over India. This
study has not only generated information, it
will also strengthen the network by building
capacity at the district level and strengthening
local networking with individuals as well as
organisations and government agencies.
