Carrying Capacity Analysis in Mizoram Tourism

Carrying capacity is a concept that has been extensively applied in tourism and leisure studies since the 1960s, but its appearance can be date back to the 1930s. It may be viewed as an important thought in the eventual emergence of sustainability discussion, it has become less important in recent years as sustainability and its associated concepts have come to dominate planning on the management of tourism and its impacts. But the study of carrying capacity analysis is still an important tool to know the potentiality and future impact in tourism sector. Thus, up to some extent carrying capacity analysis is important study for tourist destinations and states like Mizoram. Mizoram is a small and young state with few thousands of visitors that visit the state every year.

Coverage of Nutrition and Health Interventions in MIZORAM Insights from the National Family Health Survey-4
No. 23 | SEPTEMBER 2018 Coverage of Nutrition and Health Interventions in MIZORAM Insights from the National Family Health Survey-4 ABOUT THIS DATA NOTE Nutrition-specific interventions are aimed at improving the proximal food, health, and care environment for women and children during the first 1000 days. They can help improve maternal and child health, improve diets and other nutrition practices, and reduce infections. These interventions span pregnancy, postnatal, and early childhood periods and include food and micronutrient supplementation, nutrition education and/or counselling, growth monitoring and promotion, as well as routine immunization, deworming, and care during illness. At 90% coverage, these interventions can contribute to 20% reduction in stunting and 61% reduction in severe wasting1. India’s policy framework for health and nutrition is robust and includes most evidence-based nutrition and health interventions. Two large-scale national program platforms – the Integrated Child Development Services and the National Health Mission together provide the public sector delivery platforms with the mandate to deliver these interventions across the country. India’s efforts at scaling up nutrition interventions are now also supported by the National Nutrition Mission. This Data Note describes the coverage of a set of key nutrition and health interventions. The findings here are based on data from the National Family Health Survey 2015-2016. Indicators to capture the coverage of the interventions here are all calculated for women (15-49 years) with a child under five years of age. All analyses are based on the last-born child for each woman and indicator definitions are provided in Annex 1 of this Note.
