SAFE Support and Strategic Core (S3C)

The SAFE Team convenes S3C quarterly for the people doing infant and young child feeding in emergencies work on the ground: the ones writing the plans, sitting on preparedness committees, and answering the phone when the water goes out.   SAFE is the national IYCF-E implementation of Breastfeeding Family Friendly Communities. If BFFC is the blue skies strategy, the slow work of building communities where feeding a baby is everyone’s business, SAFE is the gray skies strategy, for the days that work gets tested.   An emergency does not wait for a community to figure out how babies will be fed. This is where we work through what is actually happening where you are, what is stuck, and what the rest of us have already learned the hard way.   Come with foundational IYCF-E knowledge from training, coursework, or response experience.
