DFID’s paper ‘The Neglected Crisis of Undernutrition: Evidence for Action’ (2009) provided a comprehensive literature review on the causes, consequences and potential actions to resolve maternal and child undernutrition.
It drew heavily on the findings of the medical journal the Lancet’s series on maternal and child undernutrition published in 2008. This paper updates the evidence base on maternal and child undernutrition in the light of new research undertaken since 2009.
