Reducing inequities in maternal and child health in rural Guatemala through the CBIO+ Approach of Curamericas: 4. Nutrition-related activities and changes in childhood stunting, wasting, and underweight
(BioMed Central, 2023) Henry B. Perry; Ira Stollak; Ramiro Llanque; Stanley Blanco; Elizabeth Jordan-Bell; Alexis C. Shindhelm; Carey Westgate; Andrew Herrera; Mario Valdez
The Project Area in which Curamericas/Guatemala implemented the CBIO+ Approach experienced a reduction in the prevalence of stunting and other measures of undernutrition in under-2 children. Given the burden of undernutrition in Guatemala and other parts of the world, this approach merits broader application and further evaluation.
