Mapping the Ripples: How SAFE Team Work Creates Lasting Change

This time-lapse video captures the creation of the Ripple Effects Mapping illustration developed with the NCBfC SAFE Team. The image highlights the wide-ranging impact of the team’s work on safe infant and young child feeding in emergencies (IYCF-E). From local partnerships to national policy conversations, the Ripple Effects map shows how collective action can transform systems and support families during times of crisis.
