The Association between a Novel Baby-Friendly Hospital Program and Equitable Support for Breastfeeding in Vietnam

In response, a novel performance-based, baby-friendly hospital program designates hospitals that adhere to evidence-based early essential newborn care (EENC) and breastfeeding interventio…
Utilizing a Comparative Policy Resource from the WORLD Policy Analysis Center Covering Constitutional Rights, Laws, and Policies across 193 Countries for Outcome Analysis, Monitoring, and Accountabili…

Over 2,000 quantitatively comparable measures of national laws and policies across 193 countries were …

In contrast to formal care, informal caregivers usually have a close relationship w…

Using a new global policy database, we analyze national legislation regarding minimum marriage age, exceptions permitting marriage at earlier ages, and gender disparities in laws. While our longitudinal data indicate improvements in frequen…
