Quality programming to improve complementary feeding practices for children 6 up to 24 months is a key component of programming to address a child’s needs during the first 1,000 days. USAID and USAID Advancing Nutrition curated this focused set of resources to inform and guide USAID implementing partners to design and implement more tailored, age-specific infant feeding and responsive care and early learning programming during the first two years of a child’s life. As part of the effort, we have compiled a few key resources for implementers to review and consider to improve complementary feeding, including job aids, educational materials for caregivers, and resources on how to design, implement, and monitor complementary feeding activities.
