Page 1 4 HOW CAN NUTRITION IMPROVE? WHAT FACTORS CAUSE UNDERNUTRITION? The most crucial period for child nutrition is Optimum fetal and child nutrition and development from pre-pregnancy to the second year of life2 IMMEDIATE CAUSES 100 Breastfeeding, nutrient rich foods, and eating routine 90 Feeding and caregiving practices, parenting stimulation 80 Low burden of infectious diseases 70 60 UNDERLYING CAUSES Food security: availability, economic access and use of food 50 Feeding and caregiving resources (maternal, household and 40 community level) 30 Access to and use of health services, a safe and hygienic environment Window of Too late 20 opportunity

Percentage of child stunting (%) 10 BASIC CAUSES 0 Knowledge and evidence Politics and governance Leadership, capacity and financial resources Social, economic, political, and environmental context Age of child (in months) (national and global) Child undernutrition is caused by inadequacies in food, health and care for infants and young children, especially in thefirst two years of life (immediatecauses). Inadequate food, health and care arise from food insecurity, unsanitary livingconditions, low status of women, and poor health care(underlying causes). These are, in turn, caused by social inequity, economic challenges, poor political will and leadership to address these causes(basic causes). Interventions to address undernutrition must address thesemultiplecausesof undernutritionand do so in an equitable manner. IMMEDIATE CAUSES OF UNDERNUTRITION

Areas for immediate action: • Very high rates of open defecation; critical need to increase awareness about washing hands with soap and ensuring access to using improved sanitation facilities • Very few households live in a permanent house and have access to electricity Data challenges: • Poor availability of data on underlying causes of undernutrition from national surveys • Difficult to compare indicators of water, sanitation and hygiene over time as census data do not provide data on child stool disposal or on hand washing
