| Sumario: | This dataset comes from the Pregnant Women Survey, conducted as part of the baseline for the Alive & Thrive (A&T) impact evaluation in Gujarat, India. The study assessed how systems-strengthening interventions and local governance efforts improved the quality and coverage of nutrition and health services during pregnancy.
The survey, carried out in three districts (Bharuch, Surat, Mahesana) between March–May 2022, collected data from women in both intervention and control blocks. It was implemented by IFPRI in partnership with Network for Engineering and Economics Research and Management (NEERMAN).
The questionnaire consisted of multiple modules designed to gather comprehensive information on pregnant women's experiences, knowledge, and service exposure.
These data offer valuable insights into the reach and quality of nutrition and health services, particularly the delivery of Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) by frontline workers such as Anganwadi Workers (AWWs) and Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs), as well as the effectiveness of supervisory systems and local governance in addressing service gaps.
