Institutional Contract-Evaluation of Vulnerable Groups Feeding Programme in Botswana
BackgroundBotswana is a country with good access to health care and where several interventions to address malnutrition prevention and management are institutionalised. Nevertheless, available data shows that in Botswana, stunting has remained consistently high between 1996 and 2007 (29 and 31 per cent, respectively) clearly showing a public health concern. Furthermore, 20 per cent of children remain chronically malnourished across many districts. Stunting is associated with low birth weight (most often linked to poor nutritional status of pregnant women), inadequate nutrient intake and repeated infectious diseases. The costs of undernutrition are significant. On average, adults who were stunted as children earn 20 per cent less than their non-stunted counterparts. World Bank estimates show that a 1 per cent loss in adult height due to childhood stunting is associated with a 1.4 per cent loss in economic productivity.

The programme is being funded, spearheaded and implemented by the Government and distributed through the monthly Child Welfare Clinics (CWC) sessions. An estimated 85 per cent of children under-5 attend CWC, however, provision of the products is inconsistent. The 2014 Determinants of Malnutrition study, w...
