Area of Science:

  • Public Health Nutrition
  • Infant Feeding Practices

Background:

  • WHO and UNICEF recommend donor human milk as the primary alternative to maternal breastfeeding.
  • Lack of accessible human milk banks contributes to the reliance on infant formula.
  • The IYCF (Infant and Young Child Feeding) Chapter highlights concerns regarding formula use due to limited donor milk availability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish guidelines for ensuring the safety and quality of donated human milk.
  • To address the need for accessible human milk banks in India.

Main Methods:

  • A National Consultative Meet was convened by the IYCF Chapter and the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India.
  • Guidelines were developed through extensive literature review and stakeholder consultations.
  • Adaptations were made to suit the Indian context, culture, and needs while maintaining scientific integrity.

Main Results:

  • The need for establishing human milk banks across India was identified.
  • Development of national coordination mechanisms with secretariats and technical support is recommended.
  • Securing adequate budgetary provisions for human milk banking activities is essential.

Conclusions:

  • Formation of a Human Milk Banking Association is proposed.
  • Nationwide establishment of human milk banks is recommended.
  • A robust national coordination framework and dedicated funding are necessary for successful implementation.
