Introduction: the reality of malnutrition in India and its relation to poverty and hunger -- Research context -- How are we growing?: Primary school children in rural India and their nutritional outcomes -- What we ate then and what we eat now: Grandmother’s Tale Chapter 5: Health and Nutrition in schools: Teachers’ Account -- Why do we eat what we eat? Changing dietary choice -- Food and Nutrition Policy: the Government response -- The Health Eco-System: a suggested framework for food and nutrition at various levels – schools, households, community, programs and policy.
This book highlights the reality of malnutrition among school-age children in India and relates it with dietary adequacy, diversity and choice. Using empirical data from field research conducted in Karnataka, India, it documents the nutritional status of school-going children, and examines the socio-economic determinants. It provides insights into changing dietary patterns by analysing case studies from households and schools; and documents the impact of changing dietary choices on the daily nutritional intake of young children. As the issue of nutrition for school-age children is one that is largely neglected in the literature, the book fills an important gap. The book also investigates the policy framework for addressing the nutritional needs of school-going children, and assesses the available government-sponsored interventions in terms of their efficiency and effectiveness, measured by their impact on the nutritional indices of the target group. It offers concrete reco mmendations for changing the nutritional intake of school-going children. Navigating through the socio-cultural causes for changing food choice and their impact on children’s nutritional outcomes, this book shows a viable path to addressing malnutrition, taking into account both macro-level policy constraints and the micro-level perspectives of families, schools and communities.
