The WHO Regional Office for Europe and the Federation of International Societies for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition held a joint workshop, "Moving Complementary Feeding Forward" at the sixth World Congress Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition in 2021. Here we summarize workshop presentations and discussions. The workshop covered health implications of complementary feeding (CF) including allergies, challenges to meet dietary needs during the CF period, quality of commercial complementary foods (CFD) and respective marketing practices, national CF guidelines in Europe, a nutrient profiling system for CFD, and global policy perspectives on the standards and regulation of marketing for CFD. Adequate CF practices are of critical importance for short and long-term child health, prevention of nutrient deficiencies, normal growth and development, and reducing the risk of allergies. The workshop identified the need to improve feeding practices, harmonize evidence-based information and develop guidance jointly with various stakeholders, improve the composition and marketing practices of commercial CFD and their transparent labeling based on nutrient profiling. Renewed efforts for collaboration between scientists, public health experts, pediatric associations, national governments, and the WHO are necessary for advancing progress.
世界卫生组织欧洲区域办事处和国际儿科胃肠病学、肝病学和营养学联合会于 2021 年在第六届世界儿科胃肠病学、肝病学和营养学大会上联合举办了一个题为“推进补充喂养”的研讨会。我们在这里总结研讨会的演讲和讨论。研讨会涵盖了补充喂养（CF）的健康影响，包括过敏、在 CF 期间满足饮食需求的挑战、商业补充食品（CFD）的质量和各自的营销实践、欧洲的国家 CF 指南、CFD 的营养成分分析系统，以及全球对 CFD 营销标准和监管的政策观点。适当的 CF 实践对儿童短期和长期健康、预防营养缺乏、正常生长发育以及降低过敏风险至关重要。研讨会确定需要改善喂养实践，协调循证信息，并与各利益攸关方共同制定指导意见，改善商业 CFD 的组成和营销实践，并根据营养成分分析进行透明标签。科学家、公共卫生专家、儿科协会、各国政府和世卫组织之间需要开展新的合作，以推动进展。
