Reach Each Child Programme
Reach Each Child Programme brings focus on the first 1000 day of a mother and child’s life
Currently, India contributes to 1/3rd of the global burden of undernutrition, with 46.6 million stunted children and the highest number of child wasting across South Asia. Productivity losses from stunted children are estimated at 8% of GDP (Reckitt, 2021). Covid-19 pandemic has also caused an impact on India’s undernutrition crisis and according to a UNICEF research, India is likely to witness a 10% increase in malnutrition post the pandemic.
PROGRAM ANALYSIS
Nutrition DASHBOARD
The Reach Child Dashboard represents real time data of programmatic interventions and its impact on the beneficiaries to equip its users with complete information of Nutrition status of the vulnerable communities in the project sites. Users can compare, analyze and draw co-relations regarding the persisting challenges around nutrition, maternal health and child health in the intervention sites. It enables its users to run regression analysis using bivariate and multivariate data points.
Dashboards are useful tools that help users visualize and understand key information for complex systems. Users can track progress to see how the programmatic interventions are contributing to the national policies and SDGs at districts, state and national level.
