Overview
This activity seeks to conduct a preliminary survey on agriculture, nutrition, and health among nutritionally vulnerable groups in a rural district of Uganda. The goal of the assessment is to provide a baseline for evaluating interventions that integrate agriculture, nutrition, and health. It will involve randomly sampled children under two years of age and their mothers or primary caregivers and will assess agricultural activities, food security, diet, feeding practices, health, and nutritional status using anthropometry and biochemical indicators in these nutritionally vulnerable groups.
