Action Contre la Faim (ACF) – a Nutrition Security Approach to tackle under-nutrition (malnutrition?) Lessons from the field, way forward and research needs
The National Nutrition Policy aims to ensure access to safe, nutritious food for all Indians to promote health and prevent diseases. It was adopted in 1993 and takes a multi-sectoral approach, targeting vulnerable groups through both direct nutrition interventions and indirect development policies. The policy's implementation involves national and state-level coordination across sectors like agriculture, health, and education to achieve its goals of reducing malnutrition and improving nutritional status nationwide.
The document outlines key challenges and approaches to improving global food safety. It discusses various hazards that can arise throughout the food supply chain from production to consumption. Effective food safety requires a multisectoral and multidisciplinary approach. New control techniques are needed as pathogens can survive traditional preparation and contaminated food often looks and smells normal. International standards like Codex Alimentarius help harmonize food safety systems globally. The document then summarizes the vision, strategic goals and framework for a regional food safety strategy in Asia Pacific, as well as the drivers necessitating a new WHO Global Food Safety Strategy.
The document summarizes Ethiopia's Productive Safety Net Program (PSNP), a large social protection program that aims to smooth food consumption and protect assets for chronically food insecure communities. Key points:
- The PSNP provides direct transfers and public works projects to build community assets like roads and irrigation. It supports up to 8 million beneficiaries with a budget of $0.5 billion annually.
- Independent evaluations show the PSNP improved household food security and dietary diversity but had little impact on child nutrition outcomes. It did not reduce labor supply or crowd out private transfers.
- While the PSNP enhanced resilience, graduation remains a challenge. Targeting in lowland areas also proved difficult. Ensuring timely payments
The PSNP (Productive Safety Net Program) in Ethiopia aims to smooth food consumption and protect assets for chronically food insecure communities through public works projects and direct support transfers. It provides up to 8 million beneficiaries with approximately $0.5 billion annually. Independent evaluations show the PSNP has improved household food security and built community assets, but has had limited success improving child nutrition. While it has reduced vulnerability, graduation remains a challenge. Regular monitoring and learning have helped address issues like timely payments but sustainability and increasing coverage remain ongoing efforts.

Dietary diversity, as measured by the number of unique foods consumed, is associated with several indicators of household food security. The document considers the relationships between dietary diversity and per capita expenditures, caloric availability from both staples and non-staples, and finds associations between greater consumption of diverse food groups and higher levels of each of these food security indicators. Unique food groups are defined as country-specific staples and luxury staples, as well as vitamin A-rich foods, beans and pulses, dairy, fats, sugars, meat and eggs, and other plant-based foods.
This document discusses key concepts and methods for conducting dietary assessments and nutritional analysis. It defines dietary assessment, nutritional assessment, nutritional status, nutrient intake and requirements. It also discusses optimal nutritional status, dietary assessment principles, dietary diversity, and when to measure dietary diversity. Different food groups are identified for constructing the Household Dietary Diversity Score and Women's Dietary Diversity Score. Methods for calculating and setting thresholds for these scores are described. The document also illustrates the association between dietary adequacy and anthropometric measures of nutritional status.
Srinivasulu Rajendran from the Centre for the Study of Regional Development at Jawaharlal Nehru University in New Delhi, India presented on measuring household dietary diversity scores. The household dietary diversity score (HDDS) is a simple count of food groups consumed by a household over the preceding 3 days. It reflects a household's economic access to food. Food groups are categorized and each food group consumed is given a score of 1. The total HDDS is the sum of all food groups consumed and can range from 0 to 15. HDDS provides a snapshot of household food access but not nutrient adequacy of individual diets.
This document discusses anthropometry measurements used to assess nutritional status in children under 5. It provides an overview of key anthropometric indices like height-for-age, weight-for-age, weight-for-height, and mid-upper arm circumference, which are compared to reference standards to identify conditions like stunting, wasting, underweight, and acute malnutrition. Cut-offs for malnutrition are defined based on z-scores and the WHO child growth standards are recommended as the reference for Bangladesh. Methods of collecting and analyzing anthropometric data are also outlined.
The document discusses malnutrition indicators and the nutritional status of children under 5 years old. It outlines several key indicators used to measure malnutrition: low birth weight, stunting, wasting, and underweight. Stunting indicates chronic undernutrition and reduced linear growth. Wasting reflects acute, short-term malnutrition and loss of body mass. Underweight is a composite measure of both chronic and acute malnutrition. The document also discusses classifications for moderate and severe forms of each indicator based on standard deviations from growth references. Trends in undernutrition among children in Bangladesh from 1989 to 2009 are shown, demonstrating declines in stunting, wasting, and underweight over time.
Malnutrition in children can be measured in several ways:
1) Low birth weight indicates intra-uterine undernutrition from maternal malnutrition.
2) Childhood malnutrition has severe consequences if it occurs early in life, negatively impacting growth, health, development and productivity.
3) Common anthropometric indicators used to measure nutritional status in children under 5 include height-for-age, weight-for-age, weight-for-height, and mid-upper arm circumference. Stunting, wasting and underweight are classifications based on these measures.
This document discusses measuring anthropometric indicators like child stunting, wasting, and underweight. It explains that these are the three most commonly used indicators and describes how to calculate each using height-for-age, weight-for-height, and weight-for-age respectively. The document provides an example calculation of a child's weight-for-age z-score and refers the reader to Stata programs and datasets for further information.
The document discusses measures of income inequality and policy implications. It provides context on Kuznets' framework of sectoral and intra-sectoral disparities. It then examines various measures of inequality like the Gini coefficient, Lorenz curve, and Atkinson index, noting that all embed normative judgments. Estimates of inequality for India are based on consumption distribution data from the National Sample Survey, but have limitations since they ignore within-group inequality. Policy strategies also assume independence between growth and redistribution, which is an oversimplification.
The document discusses measuring wealth inequality through the Lorenz curve and Gini coefficient. It provides steps to construct the Lorenz curve from household wealth distribution data and interpret the results. The Gini coefficient measures inequality based on the ratio of the area between the Lorenz curve and line of equality to the total area under the line of equality. STATA commands like 'inequal' and 'lorenz' can calculate various inequality measures and plot the Lorenz curve from data.
The document summarizes the results of a multiple regression analysis examining factors that influence childhood nutritional status. The analysis used data from Malawi and examined variables like maternal education, health clinic access, diarrhea incidence, breastfeeding practices, and more. The regression identified several significant predictors of childhood weight-for-age and height-for-age, including maternal education, clinic access, diarrhea incidence, and breastfeeding. The model fit the data well and assumptions of the regression were met. Overall, the analysis found that childhood nutrition is influenced by multiple socioeconomic and health-related factors.
This document discusses regression analysis, including its origins and modern understanding, applications, deterministic versus stochastic specifications, problems with estimation, and why ordinary least squares is commonly used. It also mentions data prerequisites for regression analysis.
The document discusses using linear regression analysis in SPSS to analyze the relationship between household size (independent variable) and monthly per capita household expenditure (dependent variable). It outlines the steps to perform the regression analysis in SPSS, including selecting variables, interpreting output tables like the model summary, ANOVA table, and coefficients table. The analysis finds that household size significantly influences monthly expenditure, with expenditure increasing by about 862 taka for each additional household member.
This document discusses India's food security oriented approach to poverty alleviation from a macro and micro perspective. It outlines how India has conceptualized poverty and food security since the pre-independence era based on minimum calorie requirements. A three-pronged strategy was employed involving increasing food availability, distribution through PDS, and income generation programs. However, targeting errors have been issues. Economic reforms required rethinking PDS and targeting approaches to balance growth with redistributive justice given the large population of food insecure poor. Identification of beneficiaries remains a challenge between universal and targeted programs.
This document discusses concepts and methods for measuring poverty. It notes that while governments collect many statistics on poverty, the data ultimately comes from individual reports that may not be accurate. There are practical concerns in measuring poverty, including defining the poverty line, what unit to measure (individual, household), and what indicators to use. Common methods for setting the poverty line include the food energy intake method and cost of basic needs approach. The food energy intake method sets the poverty line based on the expenditure needed to meet minimum daily calorie requirements. The cost of basic needs approach identifies items in a basic consumption bundle and determines the total cost. Poverty lines may vary by region due to differences in prices and publicly provided goods and services.
This document provides an overview of correlation analysis procedures in SPSS, including bivariate correlation, partial correlation, and distance measures. It discusses interpreting correlation coefficients and significance values. Scatterplots are recommended to check assumptions before correlation. Hands-on exercises are included to find correlations between variables while controlling for other variables.
This document discusses analyzing the correlation between various socioeconomic, demographic, environmental, and health factors and child nutritional status. It describes collecting cross-sectional data on factors like household expenditures, mother's education, access to healthcare and sanitation, and child illness. Correlation analysis would examine the linear association between these determinants and anthropometric indicators of child nutrition to help identify policy priorities for improving child health and nutrition outcomes.
Srinivasulu Rajendran from Jawaharlal Nehru University in New Delhi, India presented information on performing a two-way ANOVA using SPSS. The researcher analyzed how monthly per capita food expenditure was influenced by participants' gender and education level. A two-way ANOVA found no significant interaction between gender and education but did find a significant effect of education level on food expenditure.
This document discusses a study examining the relationship between maternal education, child care practices, and child malnutrition in India. It presents a conceptual framework showing how maternal education can improve child nutritional status through better health care knowledge and practices. A two-way ANOVA analysis is used to analyze the interaction effects of maternal education levels and an index of child care practices on child weight-for-height Z-scores. The results suggest that while maternal education has a significant main effect, there is no significant interaction between education levels and child care practices on child nutritional status.
1) The document discusses changes in consumption patterns using data from Malawi. It analyzes the proportions of calories derived from different food groups across household expenditure quartiles.
2) ANOVA tests show the shares of calories from maize, roots/tubers, and meat/fish/eggs differ significantly across expenditure quartiles, while shares of other foods do not.
3) Poorer households derive most calories from staples like maize, while higher-income households consume more vegetables, milk, and animal products, indicating greater dietary diversity with more income.
A two-way ANOVA was conducted to examine the effects of gender head and education level on monthly per capita food expenditure. There was no significant interaction between gender head and education level. While there were no differences between gender heads within each education level, there were significant differences in expenditure between education levels overall. Simple main effects tests showed no significant differences in expenditure between gender heads at each education level.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
