Summary
This report presents case studies to illustrate strategies and interventions to support and promote breastfeeding. It is designed to provide guidance to practitioners in achieving health goals in relation to breastfeeding and in implementing NSW Health nutrition, child health and obesity prevention policies. These case studies extend our knowledge about interventions, by providing more detailed descriptions of specific strategies found to be effective in recent systematic reviews, and by illustrating a range of initiatives related to strategies not covered in systematic reviews. Case studies were chosen from three strategy areas: education and support; health service policies and practices; and mass media, advocacy, healthy public policy.
