Editor-in-Chief: Lisa Amir @Lisa_H_Amir

International Breastfeeding Journal is an open access, peer-reviewed online journal that encompasses all aspects of breastfeeding. Breastfeeding is recognized as an important public health issue with enormous social and economic implications. Infants who do not receive breast milk are likely to experience poorer health outcomes than breastfed infants; mothers who do not breastfeed increase their own health risks.
