POSHAN District Nutrition Profiles (DNPs) draw on diverse sources of data to compile a set of indicators on the state of nutrition and its cross-sectoral determinants. The profiles are intended to be conversation-starters at the district level and to enable discussions about why undernutrition levels are high, and which factors, at multiple levels, might need to be addressed to improve nutrition.
PLEASE NOTE that POSHAN is regularly tracking data sources as they are released and updating the profiles accordingly.

Child undernutrition is caused by inadequacies in food, health and care for infants and young children, especially in
thefirst two years oflife (immediatecauses). Inadequate food, health and care arise from food insecurity, unsanitary
living conditions, low status ofwomen, and poor health care(underlying causes). These are, in turn, caused by social
inequity, economic challenges, poor political will and leadership to address these causes (basic causes). Interventions
to address undernutrition must address thesemultiplecauses ofundernutritionand do so in an equitablemanner.
