Farming Systems for Improved Nutrition in Bangladesh

International literature places great importance on nutrition sensitive agricultural interventions to improve health and nutrition; particularly in communities where potential for agricultural growth is promising. Despite this, little is understood about the ways in which agricultural interventions can be delivered to communities according to the needs of the communities.

The Other Asian Enigma

While there are some initiatives that were not overtly coordinated with nutritional change in mind, Bangladesh’s progress is clearly the result of pro-poor multisectoral policies that have successfully addressed many – but not all – of the multiple constraints on child growth.

Bringing researchers and policymakers together in the battle against malnutrition

Through the programme of research and regular engagement with government and non-governmental stakeholders, LANSA aims to use the generated evidence to inform policy and programme decisions to enhance nutrition through agriculture.
