Conducting nutrition research projects and surveys in 5 countries in 5 years

Research institution / Switzerland

September 2024 — December 2029

Description

To reduce the prevalence of various nutrition indicators (e.g., anemia, low birthweight, stunting, wasting, and micronutrient deficiencies), timely and robust studies and surveys must be conducted. GroundWork commits to working with governments and stakeholders from the UN and civil society to undertake large-scale survey and research projects in low and middle income countries. This will enable relevant stakeholders to target existing interventions and design new interventions to effectively and efficiently reduce the prevalence of malnutrition.
