Tackling malnutrition is a global health priority, helping children both survive and thrive. A large proportion of infants under six months of age in the world are identified as malnourished (wasted, stunted and/or underweight) and are at increased risk of death, disease, and poor development.
Challenges faced by frontline practitioners in the management of small and nutritionally at-risk infants under six months and their mothers (MAMI) prompted the MAMI Global Network to develop the MAMI Care Pathway Package (formerly the C-MAMI Tool) to fill this urgent gap. Modeled on an integrated care pathway approach and Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI), it provides implementation guidance and resources for adaptation, integration, and linkages across existing neonatal, health and nutrition systems and services.
Learn about the MAMI Care Pathway Package at this orientation webinar. Part 1 (45 mins) will focus on why MAMI matters and an overview of the MAMI Care Package. Part 2 (45 mins) will explore the contents of the Package in more detail.
