limited resources. More than 200 different growth charts
are coming into over 80 countries

 O-Oral re hydration: which could save about more than 4
million young children who could died each year from
diarrhoea dehydration.
One out of every 20 children born into the developing world
dies due to dehydration brought on by ordinary diarrhoea,
before reaching the age of 5. It is the biggest single cause of
child deaths in developing countries.
 .B-Breast feeding :which can ensure that infants have the
best possible food and a considerable degree of immunity
from common infections during the first six month of life.
For infants, breast-milk is more nutritious, more hygienic,
and provides a degree of immunity from infection. For the
mother, breast-feeding is economical - but it also makes
heavy demands on her energy, time, and freedom of
movement
 I-IMMUNIZATION:
which can protect a child against measles, diphtheria, whooping
cough, tetanus, tuberculosis, and polio. At present, these
diseases kill as estimated 5 million young children a year, leave
5 million more disabled, and are a major cause of child
malnutrition

THIS CAMPAIGN INCLOUD SOME SERVICES FOR WOMEN
WELLFARE
In addition, recent research in the developing world has
highlighted three kinds of support for women. These changes
are sometimes known as the three F’s:
 FEMALE EDUCATION:
Even within low-income communities, a child born to a mother
with no education has been shown to be twice as likely to die in
infancy as a child born to a mother with even four years of
schooling
 FAMILY SPACING:
Infant and child deaths have been found to be, on average,
twice as high when the interval between births is less than two
years.
 FOOD SUPPLEMENTS:
A handful of extra food each day for at-risk pregnant women
has been shown to reduce the risk of low birth-weight - a risk
which carries with it a two or three times greater likelihood of
death in infancy.

ICDS(INTEGRATED CHILD DEVELOPMENT
SERVICE )
 Launched on 2nd October, 1975, the Integrated Child
Development Services (ICDS) Scheme is one of the flagship
programme of the Government of India and represents one of
the world’s largest and unique programme for early
childhood care and development
.
 It is the foremost symbol of country’s commitment to its
children and nursing mothers, as a response to the
challenge of providing:-
 Pre-school
 non-formal education on one hand and breaking the vicious cycle of
malnutrition,
 morbidity
 Induce learning capacity and mortality on the other.
 The beneficiaries under the Scheme are children in the age group of
0-6 years, pregnant women and lactating mothers.
 Objectives of the Scheme are:to improve the nutritional and health status of
children in the age-group 0-6 years;
 To lay the foundation for proper psychological, physical and social
development of the child;
 To reduce the incidence of mortality, morbidity, malnutrition and
school dropout;
ICDS
SERVICES

15. 15
 To achieve effective co-ordination of policy and implementation
amongst the various departments to promote child development; and
 To enhance the capability of the mother to look after the normal
health and nutritional needs of the child through proper nutrition and
health education.
The ICDS Scheme offers a package of six services, viz.
1. Supplementary Nutrition.
2. Pr-school non-formal education.
3. Nutrition & health education.
4. Immunization
5. Health check-up and
6. Referral services
 The last three services are related to health and are provided by
Ministry/Department of Health and Family Welfare through
NRHM(national rural health mission) & Health system. The
perception of providing a package of services is based primarily on
the consideration that the overall impact will be much larger if the
different services develop in an integrated manner as the efficacy of a
particular service depends upon the support it receives from the
related services.
 For better governance in the delivery of the Scheme, convergence is,
therefore, one of the key features of the ICDS Scheme. This
convergence is in-built in the Scheme which provides a platform
in the form of Anganwadi Centres for providing all services under
the Scheme..
