While most organizations focus on either child survival or early childhood development, MAP International integrates best practices from both areas into a seamless whole. Our innovative approach advocates healthy infant brain development as one of the most strategic interventions to break patterns of intergenerational transmission of disadvantage, violence, poverty, and ill health.
The project will help families and communities to provide nurturing conditions for pregnant women and infants and to gain control over key determinants for early brain architecture development: (1) appropriate physical nutrition, (2) emotional nourishment, (3) cognitive nourishment, (4) infant self-awareness, and (5) safe & enriching environments. Changing the Bolivian communities for long term positive impact.
