The target villages of the SCALING project are primarily rural communities with agriculture-based
\nlivelihoods, but also include peri-urban villages with mixed agricultural and market-based economies. The
\ncommunities are ethnically diverse, and face a number of barriers to achieve quality maternal and child health
\nand nutrition. These include lack of access to health and nutrition information, inadequate quality of health
\nservices, engendered social restrictions and taboos, inadequate access to Water, Sanitation and Hygiene
\n(WASH) infrastructure and the need for strengthened multi-sector nutrition governance. A specific target
\ngroup for SCALING are the so-called 1,000-day households (HHs) covering the pregnancy and the first two
\nyears of the new born baby. This is recognised as a key period for the physical and mental development of
\nthe child in the long term.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
