Watch Recording

To grasp the relationship that underpins malnutrition characteristics and the specific environment they are found in, a true data deep-dive is required: From panel surveys, academic journals, VAM data and grey literature, data forms the backbone of every Fill the Nutrient Gap Analysis and the questions asked in the process: What proportion of the population can afford a diet that provides the nutrients required to prevent malnutrition? Which vulnerable groups are the most expensive to meet nutrient needs for? How does the cost of a nutritious diet change if unhealthy snacks are consumed regularly – as found by research? What is the impact of home gardens on affordability of a nutritious diet?
This presentation will visualize how Fill the Nutrient Gap Analysis has used different sources and types of data to inform a comprehensive picture of the nutrition situation in Cambodia and interventions to improve it.
