Thank you for your time and commitment to Lamaze International.
Lamaze International considers it important that there be a full understanding of and confidence in the honesty and integrity of Lamaze International’s business dealings, that adequate steps are taken to assure that all actions are for the benefit of the organization, and that no presenters or planners of continuing education activities provided for Lamaze Contact Hours have, or may be perceived to have, a divided loyalty or other interest which may be in conflict with his or her role with Lamaze International.
The mission of Lamaze International is to advance safe and healthy pregnancy, birth and early parenting through evidence-based education and advocacy. Any advertising in connection with a program that is approved for Lamaze Contact Hours must be in compliance with the Lamaze Advertising Standards Policy. No advertising may do anything to negatively affect the mission or reputation of Lamaze International. Consistent with its philosophy on breastfeeding, Lamaze International abides by the World Health Organization Code of Marketing Breastmilk Substitutes and its resolutions (WHO Code). Compliance with the WHO Code advertising provisions applies to the product or service being advertised, not to the entire corporation. Lamaze International reserves the right to decline or prohibit any advertising that, in its sole discretion, is inappropriate or contrary to its policies. This reservation is all-inclusive as to persons, things, printed matter, website content, inserts and coupons, product samples, video, and conduct.
These advertising guidelines are applicable to all Lamaze consumer and professional publications and media, and all Lamaze educational events, including the annual conference, workshops (hosted publicly or privately), online education programs, and Lamaze Childbirth Educator Programs. Acceptance as an advertiser, exhibitor or sponsor can not be viewed as an endorsement of any product.
