Summary
The World Food Programme (WFP) in technical collaboration with Ministry of Health and Child Care (MoHCC) embarked on a Prevention of Stunting programme under the UN (United Nations) Flagship Programme. As this is the first time that the programme is being implemented, a baseline survey was conducted in collaboration with Plan International and the MoHCC. The baseline training, data collection and analysis were conducted between July and August 2014. The overall goal of this survey was to assess the prevalence of stunting in children 6-18 months of age in Mutasa District and provide baseline information to measure the achievement of objectives. This will provide benchmarks to enable the tracking of the programmes objectives as well as the outcomes during and after the implementation of the programme.
