Alive & Thrive (A&T)
About

Alive & Thrive (A&T) is an initiative to save lives, prevent illness, and ensure healthy growth and development through the promotion and support of optimal maternal nutrition, breastfeeding, and complementary feeding practices. Since 2009, A&T has demonstrated that innovative approaches to improving maternal, infant, and young child nutrition (MIYCN) practices can be delivered at impact and scale.

A&T has evolved from at-scale implementation work in three countries, to providing a robust and evidence-rich package of technical assistance in five countries and two regions. A network of local and national partners lends further voice and credence to the A&T initiative. Efforts to strengthen systems, empower policy advocates, and promote the strategic use of data provide the foundation for A&T to promote sustainable, evidence based strategies for MIYCN.

What they do

Alive & Thrive (A&T) strives to create an enabling environment for building and supporting knowledge and capacity for excellence and innovation in social behavior change, policy advocacy, delivery of quality maternal, infant, and young child nutrition (MIYCN) services, and the strategic use of data. Powered by knowledge and results, A&T aims for the thoughtful and sustainable scale-up of policies and programs that improve MIYCN, while fostering learning for generations to come.
 

How do they work 

Alive and Thrive (A&T) systematically applies an evidence-rich framework for delivering nutrition results at scale. A&T’s commitment to the delivery of high-quality technical assistance creates an environment for innovation and learning, whereby programs and partners can strengthen practices, policies, and systems for optimum maternal, infant, and young child nutrition (MIYCN).
