Culturally Informed & Inclusive Practice with Infants & Their Families image

The film documents community-based work with mothers and babies in one of the poorest urban areas in South Africa. 1001 days shows how it is possible to make a difference to the lives of mothers and babies in the first 1001 days – the most critical time in any child’s life.

AiMH UK are proud to be a backer of this film project and look forward to the film being launched in December 2021 and to screening the film for AiMH UK members and friends in the New Year!
