A review of the Integrated Child Development Services’ Supplementary Nutrition Program for Infants and Young Children: Take home ration for children
We aimed to examine the current policy guidance for ICDS SNP and operationalization of these at the state-level. To do so, we compared India’s SNP guidance for THR with global guidelines for infant and young child feeding (IYCF). Additionally, the current state of the take-home ration supplied for infants and young children across India was reviewed and summarized. Findings on state- and district-specific coverage of services is described elsewhere.
District-level coverage of interventions in the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) scheme during pregnancy, lactation and early childhood in India: Insights from the National Family Health Survey-4
India’s Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) scheme, which was launched in 1975, offers nutrition and health services across the continuum of care in the first 1000 days of life. Universalization was mandated in 2006 and implemented thereafter. This Data Note describes the coverage of core ICDS interventions during pregnancy, lactation and early childhood at the district level in 2016, as seen in the National Family Health Survey-4 (NFHS-4) data from 6401districts of India.
Improving maternal nutrition in India through integrated hot-cooked meal programs: A review of implementation evidence
A notable approach to addressing maternal undernutrition during pregnancy in India in recent years has been the integration of hot-cooked meals (HCM) for pregnant and lactating women together with the provision of other health/nutrition services. Called the One Full Meal (OFM) program, these efforts aim to improve maternal nutrition and health across India by bundling center-based HCM with other nutrition services and behavior change communication implemented through the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) scheme. The program is offered at anganwadi centers (AWCs) and has been implemented in eight states in India, including Andhra Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Karnataka, Maharasht...
Feeding India's babies: Trends and patterns in infant and young child feeding practices across India's states and districts
Appropriate nutrition during early life, coming mainly from adequate infant and young child feeding (IYCF) practices, is essential for optimal growth and development. This Data Note describes the trends and patterns in key IYCF practices and food consumption patterns among children, summarizing state and district data from the third and fourth rounds of National Family Health Surveys (2006 & 2016).
What lies at the root of child undernutrition in India? Understanding trends and patterns in underlying determinants between 2006 and 2016
This Data Note describes the key trends and patterns in some of these underlying determinants in India. It summarizes state and district data from the third and fourth rounds of India’s National Family Health Surveys. While this is pre-COVID-19 era data, it provides a snap shot of the trends and patterns of the underlying determinants and is indicative of the situation to expect during and beyond the pandemic.
Tackling nutrition in Odisha: Looking back, looking forward
This report explores the state of nutrition in Odisha, assesses how nutrition outcomes changed in the state, and more importantly, and examines the road that lies ahead of Odisha on the journey to support better nutrition for the state. Nutrition progress in Odisha: Odisha has made more rapid progress in reducing child undernutrition than many other richer states. Particularly between 2006 and 2016, nutrition and health outcomes improved significantly in the state. The prevalence of stunting declined from 45 percent to 34.1 percent, although there was a marginal increase in wasting from 19.6 to 20.4 percent and in severe wasting from 5.2 to 6.4 percent. In 2018, a further decline was noted i...
