ASER Centre/Pratham Education Foundation and RTI International India are collaborating to conduct a rapid assessment on undernutrition during the COVID-19 pandemic. UNICEF India will be a technical partner. The objective is to provide information on the nutritional status of children under-five years of age in districts with high prevalence of undernutrition and inform improvements in policies and interventions to urgently address this issue, thereby avoiding deterioration in the current crisis.
The project is in the fundraising phase.
