The document discusses maternal and child health in Kenya, noting that 189,000 children under five die there each year. While Kenya has made some progress toward UN Millennium Development Goals for reducing child and maternal mortality, progress has been insufficient or nonexistent. Simple, affordable solutions exist but require political will and implementation of high-impact interventions to expand access to healthcare, clean water, nutrition, and more. World Vision contributes to these efforts through various maternal, newborn, child health and nutrition programs in Kenya.
Shenggen Fan presented at a food security conference in Armenia in January 2018. He summarized that:
1) Despite some progress, hunger and undernutrition remain problems in Central Asia and the Caucasus.
2) Overnutrition is also a growing concern, with rates of overweight and obesity increasing.
3) A comprehensive approach is needed to address these issues through social protection programs, agriculture investments to increase nutrition and diversification, and open and fair trade.
A Promise Renewed_Tessa Wardlaw_10.16.13 CORE Group
This document provides a summary of key findings from technical reports on global child mortality levels and progress toward A Promise Renewed commitments to end preventable child deaths. It finds that while the under-five mortality rate has declined significantly since 1990, nearly 6.6 million children still died in 2012. Further acceleration is needed, especially in sub-Saharan Africa, to achieve the MDG4 target by 2015. The leading causes of under-five deaths are neonatal conditions, pneumonia, diarrhea, and malaria. Progress has been uneven in reducing risk factors like lack of access to oral rehydration solution in high diarrhea burden countries.
Children’s diets, nutrition knowledge and access to marketsessp2
1) A study of 775 households in rural Ethiopia found that children's diets consist of few food groups, indicating low dietary diversity.
2) Improving household nutrition knowledge through programs like behavioral change communication can significantly increase children's dietary diversity by 0.7 food groups on average.
3) However, this positive impact of better nutrition knowledge on children's diets is only seen in households with relatively good access to markets. For more remote households, both improving nutrition knowledge and ensuring access to diverse foods are needed to enhance children's nutrition.
Does market access mitigate the impact of seasonality on child growth?Panel ...essp2
This document summarizes a study examining whether market access can mitigate the impact of seasonality on child growth in northern Ethiopia. The study finds that children located closer to markets are healthier and better nourished, with less severe seasonal fluctuations in weight. However, all children experienced considerable seasonal weight changes. Children near markets had more diverse diets year-round and were more likely to consume milk or dairy in non-lean seasons. While market access improves nutrition, it does not prevent all impacts of seasonality. The findings suggest a need for broader market integration and improved food storage and irrigation technologies to further mitigate seasonal effects on children.

Africa and Asia bear the greatest burden of child malnutrition globally. According to the report, over half of all stunted children and two-thirds of wasted children under 5 years old live in Asia, while two-fifths of stunted children and over one-quarter of wasted children live in Africa. The report also finds that rates of child stunting have declined in most regions since 2000, though Africa still has the highest prevalence and numbers of stunted children. Overweight rates are rising in all regions except Northern America.
1) According to a 2020 report by UNICEF, WHO, and the World Bank, 144 million children under 5 worldwide are stunted, 47 million are wasted, and 38 million are overweight.
2) Stunting rates are declining too slowly, while wasting still impacts far too many children. Over half of stunted children and two-thirds of wasted children live in Asia, while two in five stunted children and over a quarter of wasted children live in Africa.
3) Lower-middle income countries bear the greatest burden, with two-thirds of stunted children and three-quarters of wasted children living in these countries.
What Happened Since the Child Survival Call to Action_John Borazzo_4.26.13CORE Group
The document discusses developments since the 2012 Child Survival Call to Action. It notes many countries have developed new plans and data on child mortality is available. Key issues include focusing on vulnerable populations, high-impact interventions, and accountability. Measuring annual changes in mortality is difficult due to data limitations. Coordination is needed across global and national initiatives to accelerate reductions in preventable child deaths.
Levels and Trends in Child Malnutrition - UNICEF, WHO, Worldbank - 2014UNICEF Data & Analytics
UNICEF, WHO and the World Bank released an updated joint dataset on child malnutrition indicators (stunting, wasting, severe wasting, overweight and underweight) and new global & regional estimates for 2013 with 95% confidence intervals in September 2014 through an interactive dashboard.
Some selected findings:
- 161 million children are stunted, down from 257 million in 1990.
- Undernutrition contributes to half of all deaths in children under 5 and is widespread in Asia and Africa.
- Boys are more likely to be stunted than girls in most countries.
- 43 million children under 5 are overweight globally (as of 2011), a 54% increase from 1990
Globally in 2013, 161 million children under 5 were stunted, 51 million were wasted, and 42 million were overweight. The prevalence of stunting and underweight has decreased since 2000 but trends are rising for overweight. Over half of stunted children live in Asia while over 1/3 live in Africa. For wasting, about 2/3 live in Asia and 1/3 in Africa. The report provides details on methodology, data sources, and interactive dashboards containing malnutrition estimates from 1990-2013.
Joao McXimenes Timor Leste to Win Stunting.pptxCorreiaXimenes
This document summarizes a presentation on stunting and environmental health risk factors in Timor-Leste. It discusses how stunting refers to children being too short for their age and can cause physical and cognitive damage. In Timor-Leste, surveys show stunting rates have remained very high at around 47% of children under 5 from 2010 to 2020. The main causes of stunting identified are inadequate nutrition, recurrent infections, lack of sanitation and access to healthcare. Timor-Leste has implemented a national strategy to address stunting through nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive programs, as well as building an enabling environment with multi-sectoral coordination and advocacy efforts.
Derek Headey and Marie Ruel from IFPRI presented on the impacts of COVID-19 on childhood malnutrition and nutrition-related mortality. They found that economic contractions from COVID-19 prevention measures can significantly increase risks of child wasting. Using DHS data from 52 countries from 1990-2018, they estimated that a 10% decline in GNI could increase moderate or severe child wasting by 14%. They also explored mechanisms like impacts on child diets, disease rates, and maternal nutrition. Applying their model to Ethiopia, they estimated that a 5.5% GNI decline could result in over 70,000 additional moderately or severely wasted children. They discussed the need for unprecedented social protection and nutrition programs to mitigate impacts on child
This document summarizes an evaluation of the UNFPA Sixth Country Programme in the Philippines from 2005-2010. The evaluation assessed the implementation and impact of the program, which aimed to improve reproductive health in the country through better population management and sustainable development. It found that UNFPA successfully implemented the program despite an ambivalent policy environment and limited resources. The program strengthened reproductive health services and advocacy, though challenges remain around sustainability and access. Overall, the evaluation concluded the program made progress but more support is still needed to fully achieve reproductive health goals in the Philippines.

Save the Children is focused on reducing newborn mortality globally. It has three main goals:
1. Getting newborn health on global and national agendas through research showing the major causes of newborn deaths and effective interventions.
2. Supporting country programs that have led to important declines in newborn mortality rates in places like Bangladesh, Bolivia, and Tanzania.
3. Continuing to scale up high-impact newborn interventions through health systems, strengthen implementation, and institutionalize newborn survival within countries and organizations.

Awareness and practices of family planning in the wa municipalityAlexander Decker
This document summarizes a study that examined awareness and practices of family planning in Wa Municipality, Ghana. It begins with an introduction that provides background on high fertility rates in Ghana and the need for family planning. The study aims to analyze determinants of family planning practices and examine awareness/knowledge levels. A literature review covers factors influencing contraceptive use and definitions of key terms. Data were collected through surveys and analyzed using statistical methods like logistic regression to identify relationships between family planning adoption and socioeconomic/demographic predictors. The findings provide insight into family planning awareness, knowledge and practices in the given region of Ghana.
The document summarizes key findings from the 2021 edition of the UNICEF, WHO, and World Bank Group's Joint Child Malnutrition Estimates. It finds that while stunting has declined globally since 2000, faster progress is needed to meet 2030 targets. Wasting persists at alarming rates, and overweight prevalence must reverse if 2030 targets are to be achieved. Most children with malnutrition live in Africa and Asia, and nearly two-thirds of stunted children live in lower-middle income countries.
The document summarizes the 2010 Global Hunger Index which measures and ranks countries on indicators related to hunger. It finds that child undernutrition contributes nearly half of the global hunger score and recommends targeting nutrition interventions during the critical 1000 day period from pregnancy to age 2. Countries need to accelerate progress on child nutrition to improve their hunger index rankings.

The document discusses coordination of nutrition partners and programs in Ghana. It finds that malnutrition is addressed by many actors across different sectors, but coordination is challenging. Existing coordination mechanisms at the national level, like NANUPACC and the SUN CSPG, are functionally inactive. Coordination is also limited at regional and district levels. Key barriers to effective coordination include limited nutrition capacity and prioritization across agencies, incomplete decentralization, and reliance on donor funding. Improving coordination will require establishing a National Food and Nutrition Commission to lead engagement across sectors, strengthening multi-sectoral capacity, and increasing dedicated government funding for nutrition programs at all levels.

10. Goal: to improve and support policy and program decisions and actions to
accelerate reductions in maternal and child undernutrition in West Africa,
through an inclusive process of knowledge generation and mobilization.
•Objective 1: Assess and analyze nutrition-relevant data and actions (programs
and policies) to generate knowledge on optimal approaches to improving
maternal and child nutrition.
•Objective 2: Mobilize knowledge to strengthen enabling environments, and
inform and improve nutrition-relevant policy and programming.

The next 10 minutes I will share TNWA’s experience and approach of how to strengthen the enabling enviornment for nutrition in WA, applied to maternal nutrition.
This project is a new regional platform to enable effective policy and programmatic action on nutrition and it has two core objectives.
We aim to assess and analyze nutrition-relevant data and programs and policies to generate knowledge on optimal approaches
And then mobilize this knowledge to strengthen enabling environments and inform nutrition-relevant decision-making
With the ultimate goal to improving maternal and child nutrition.
West Africa region
4 focal countries: Ghana, Nigeria, Senegal, Burkina Faso
Process slide to reflect the general process of TNWA, including the inception phase.
Transforming the enabling environment for maternal nutrition interventions requires knowledge on optimal approaches to inform the decision-making process related to this.
TNWA adopted the 5PD process as shown here.
Explain the process and state that each step plays a role in creating an enabling environment.
The presentation will show how we use this approach to identify the data gaps, applied to maternal nutrition.
