🌟 New Research Alert: Addressing Relapse in Malnutrition Treatment 🌟

We’re committed to pushing the boundaries of knowledge in the fight against pediatric malnutrition at Taimaka. We're thrilled to announce the launch of a new study focused on one of the most pressing questions in our field: How and when do children relapse after acute malnutrition treatment?

Understanding the long-term impact of malnutrition treatment on whether children get malnutrition again is crucial to further enhancing the cost-effectiveness of our interventions. We're training a team of data collectors who will systematically follow a cohort of children discharged from our program and assess their malnutrition status.

Check out our data collectors learning how to standardize anthropometrics measures like child weight and height ⬇️

This research will fill a significant gap in the existing knowledge base, ultimately guiding us towards an even more effective and sustainable solution to pediatric malnutrition.

Stay tuned as we embark on this important journey!
