Sumario:Frontline workers (FLWs) deliver essential nutrition services to reduce maternal undernutrition in India, but coverage and quality remain sub-optimal. Alive & Thrive aimed to strengthen delivery of interpersonal counselling, community mobilization and micronutrient supplements through the government antenatal care (ANC) platform in UP. We studied pathways through which the nutrition-intensified ANC (I-ANC) was intended to impact FLWs capacity, knowledge, and service delivery, compared to standard ANC (S-ANC).
