More evidence on cash transfers and child nutritional outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis

The good news from the nutrition community is that stunting and growth faltering is less common than ever before. The prevalence of stunting among children under 5 years declined by almost a third from 2000 to 2017, with Asia seeing a prevalence drop of over 40 percent, from 38 percent to 23 percent...

description The good news from the nutrition community is that stunting and growth faltering is less common than ever before. The prevalence of stunting among children under 5 years declined by almost a third from 2000 to 2017, with Asia seeing a prevalence drop of over 40 percent, from 38 percent to 23 percent, and Latin America bringing stunting to under 10 percent of the population, a decline of 46 percent. Overall, stunting has tended to decline about 1 percent per year (Victora et al. 2021). However, the danger persists: even before COVID-19, the Sustainable Development Goals relating to nutrition were seen as unlikely to be reached.
