The WBTi is a flagship programme of IBFAN Asia that initiates a participatory assessment of the strengths and weaknesses in the 10 areas of policies and programmes meant for implementing the Global Strategy for Infant and Young Child Feeding. The WBTi works on the philosophy that when people collectively find gaps, it stimulates themto find solutions. The WBTi works as a tool for this action; while it acts as a lens to find out gaps, but later the process brings action at the national level.
It is PARTICIPATORY, it is ACTION and it is SIMPLE RESEARCH.
The national groups analyse the findings and build set of recommendations. Action generated at the national level includes advocacy and working with the Governments and other partners to bridge the gaps. more>> |

 Colour rating and Grading system initiates action, and does not undermine it!
The initiative does not intend to undermine the efforts made by the countries, rather it aims at stimulating action on critical areas to support effective implementation of the Global Strategy. We believe that, when individuals or nations look closely at their own data, it is likely to stimulate corrective measures among them. |
