Alive & Thrive began working in Burkina Faso in 2014, partnering with the Ministry of Health to implement its National Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) Scale Up Plan. From 2017 to 2022, A&T focused on strengthening the capacity of health and community-based systems to provide and sustain the level of nutrition care and support needed by women and their families. The strategic use of data and generation of learning for both IYCF and maternal nutrition in Burkina Faso also informed A&T’s work in other francophone West African countries.
