  • Nutritional Status and Social Influences in Dalit and Brahmin Women and Children in Lamjung Using Mixed Methods
    Nutritional status and social influences in Dalit and Brahmin women and children in Lamjung using mixed methods A. Objective and Specific Aims Objective: - To measure nutritional status, of women (18-44 years) and children under five (6-59 months), of Dalit and Brahmins by taking anthropometric measures in Lamjung district, Western Nepal - To conduct structured surveys and qualitative assessments of how underlying social and behavioral factors, e.g. availability, access and utilization of food, and childcare, influence nutritional status of Dalit and Brahmin women and their children Specific Aims: - To obtain the anthropometric measurements of height, weight and upper arm circumference to determine indicators of nutritional status including underweight, stunting and wasting among children under five; and to determine body mass index (BMI) among their mothers and stepmothers (if living in a same household) - To administer structured surveys to obtain household and socio-demographic information such as number of offspring and co-wives, caste status (Dalits or Brahmins), age of women and children, socio-economic status (SES) and food insecurity information - To conduct in-depth interviews of a subsample of Dalit and Brahmin women to understand how socio-cultural aspects in their lives affect food insecurity B. Background and significance It can be hypothesized that in Nepal, the social status of Dalit women– a collection of the untouchable castes – could contribute to having a lower nutritional status of themselves and their children, compared to maternal and child malnutrition among Brahmin castes (the highest ranked caste) residing in the same villages. This association between social status and malnutrition has been consistently found in developing nations (Gurung, 2010).

I would like to thank WWF and all consortium partners (CARE, NTNC, and FECOFUN) for submitting the updated M&E Plan. The revised M&E Plan is consistent with the approved Annual Work Plan and the Program Description of the Cooperative Agreement (CA). This updated M&E has added/revised/updated targets to systematically align additional earthquake recovery funding added into the award through 8th modification of Hariyo Ban award to WWF to address very unexpected and burning issues, primarily in four Hariyo Ban program districts (Gorkha, Dhading, Rasuwa and Nuwakot) and partly in other districts, due to recent earthquake and associated climatic/environmental challenges. This updated M&E Plan, including its added/revised/updated indicators and targets, will have very good programmatic meaning for the program’s overall performance monitoring process in the future.
