Thanks a lot for this important question. I am sharing with you the 

1. revised/updated list of indicators. See how MAD has been re formulated.

https://data.unicef.org/topic/nutrition/infant-and-young-child-feeding/ (go at the bottom of the page), at the very bottom you also have the link to the standard questions 

2. Links to DHS and MICS survey questionnaires

Thanks a very important and relevant question. I am not aware of something really new, but the following guidance may be of help. Remember most of the time the context and the situation are needed to shape the most appropriate KAP questions.

Dear All,

May you kindly help me to have an indicator for monitoring IYCF-E program intervention in Emergency setting from a routine program data. Thank you very much for the support.

Hi excellent question

may I suggest you look at the Nutrition in Emergencies Registry from where you can find a list of IYCF-E indicators and based on your actual intervention package you may select the most appropriate.

At the same time, the registry suggests those indicators that we need to monitor to ensure that we are protecting, promoting and support IYCF practices also during the emergencies
