geometric ratio, while the means
of subsistence increases in an
arithmetic ratio

18. On the Causes of Malnutrition
Famine and malnutrition
are a result of a collapse
of entitlements for a
certain segment of
society and the failure of
the state to protect those
entitlements.
Amartya Sen
23. Severe Acute Malnutrition
2.9% in Bangladesh
~500,000 children
At risk of death from
• Hypoglycemia
• Hypothermia
• Infections

90 % coverage 22% 32% 23%
70 % coverage 17% 27% 17%
Bhutta ZA, Ahmed T et al. Lancet 2008
35. To eliminate stunting in the longer term, these
Interventions should be supplemented by improvements
in the underlying determinants of undernutrition, such as
poverty, poor education, disease burden, and lack of
women’s empowerment.
36. Recommendations
• Business as usual will not work
• Need to think out of the box now
• There is no one size that fits all, several
strategies need to be tried
37. Recommendations
• Immediate need is to improve existing services
and scale them up
– Primary health care focusing on child & maternal
health and nutrition should be priority
– Increase number of centers, staff
– Improve quality of counseling
– Rigorous monitoring of quality of services to
reduce dissatisfaction with existing services
38. Recommendations
• Primary health care intervention package should
be expanded and improved
– IFA tablets for adolescent girls, PLW
– Breastfeeding & complementary feeding
– Micronutrient powder for infants & young children
– Management of moderate & severe acute
malnutrition
39. Undernutrition hotspots need special attention
– Monga-prone areas in the north
– The coastal belt and char areas
– Areas in Chittagong & Sylhet divisions with
higher prevalence of child malnutrition
– Rat-infested areas in the Hill Tracts
40. Recommendations
• But the ultimate goal is to prevent/control rapid
unplanned urbanization
– Create livelihoods in rural Bangladesh
– Control population growth drastically
– Improve livelihood & living conditions of people who
are already living in urban areas
Notes de l'éditeur
For paper 3, the authors reviewed 45 interventions, including breastfeeding promotion, complementary feeding promotion strategies with or without provision of food supplements, micronutrient interventions, and general supportive strategies for improving family and community nutrition and disease burden reduction. This table summarizes the various interventions with demonstrated impact on maternal and child undernutrition. Importantly, for each of the conditions contributing to nutrition-related disability and death there are already highly effective interventions available.
Explain that figure shows the sort of information generated by the model. Go through what it shows – what happens to children between birth and 36 months of age – so by 36 months of age about 9% of children have died and of those who survive over half (58%) are stunted.
