A escuta das crianças por meio de suas brincadeiras
Com recursos interpretativos de que dispõem, crianças revelam o que sabem e criam significações com seus pares. Buscou-se, então, escutar um grupo de sete crianças de 5 anos sobre um tema que faz parte de suas vivências cotidianas – a família. Por meio da observação de brincadeiras instadas, videogravadas e analisadas qualitativamente pela pesquisadora no contexto da educação infantil, as crianças revelam ser protagonistas de suas microculturas: …

A collective call to strengthen monitoring and evaluation efforts to support healthy and sustainable food systems: ‘The Accountability Pact’
There is widespread agreement among experts that a fundamental reorientation of global, regional, national and local food systems is needed to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals Agenda and address the linked challenges of undernutrition, obesity and climate change described as the Global Syndemic. Recognising the urgency of this imperative, a wide range of global stakeholders – governments, civil society, academia, agri-food industry, b…
Viewpoint: Rigorous monitoring is necessary to guide food system transformation in the countdown to the 2030 global goals
Food systems that support healthy diets in sustainable, resilient, just, and equitable ways can engender progress in eradicating poverty and malnutrition; protecting human rights; and restoring natural resources. Food system activities have contributed to great gains for humanity but have also led to significant challenges, including hunger, poor diet quality, inequity, and threats to nature. While it is recognized that food systems are central t…

O uso de filmes para obter compreensões sobre a prática pedagógica em educação infantil: Duas Abordagens Metodológicas
Este artigo apresenta duas abordagens metodológicas de pesquisa qualitativa que utilizam filmes para obter compreensões sobre a prática pedagógica em educação infantil. Uma refere-se à etnografia visual e multivocal desenvolvida por Tobin e colaboradores, que deu origem à clássica obra Educação infantil em três culturas: Japão, China e Estados Unidos (2008); outra, menos conhecida, trata-se do SOPHOS, acrônimo para Second Order Phenomenological O…
Development Research: Globalised, Connected and Accountable
Does development research need reinventing? If it does, why now and in what ways does it need to be changed? These are the questions addressed by the articles in this issue of the IDS Bulletin, many of which were presented at IDS40, the fortieth anniversary conference, in September 2006. They were also posed by the 46 Roundtables held throughout the world in 2006, organised by IDS partners and alumni, which preceded and helped frame the conferenc…

What drives and constrains effective leadership in tackling child undernutrition? Findings from Bangladesh, Ethiopia, India and Kenya
Strong leadership has been highlighted as a common element of success within countries that have made rapid progress in tackling child and maternal undernutrition. Yet little is known of what contributes to nutrition leaders’ success or lack of it in particular policy environments. This study of 89 individuals identified as influential within child and maternal undernutrition policy and programming in Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Kenya and India sheds l…
The double burden of malnutrition in SE Asia and the Pacific: Priorities, policies and politics
The double burden of malnutrition is defined by the co-existence of serious levels of under- and overnutrition.(1) Nowhere have overweight rates risen as fast as in the regions of South East Asia and the Pacific. The regions are also burdened with high and often stagnant levels of undernutrition. For countries for which data are available, the regions contain nearly half of the individuals, world wide, suffering from a double burden of malnutriti…
Does beneficiary farmer feedback improve project performance? An impact study of a participatory monitoring intervention in Mindanao, Philippines
Does farmer involvement in the monitoring of agricultural interventions improve the impact of those interventions? This article investigates the impact of a beneficiary feedback mechanism (ParFARM) on the performance of a farmers’ field school project in the Philippines. A participatory feed-back module was randomly allocated to farmer field schools and its impact was observed on a series of outcomes. We find that ParFARM increases farmers’ motiv…
Reducing Child Undernutrition: Past Drivers and Priorities for the Post-MDG Era
As the post-MDG era approaches in 2016, reducing child undernutrition is gaining high priority on the international development agenda, both as a maker and marker of development. Revisiting Smith and Haddad (2000), we use data from 1970 to 2012 for 116 countries, finding that safe water access, sanitation, women’s education, gender equality, and the quantity and quality of food available in countries have been key drivers of past reductions in st…
Why Worry About the Politics of Childhood Undernutrition
Undernutrition affects over 2 billion people; but most of the global policy focus has been on technical solutions rather than an understanding of nutrition politics. This paper reviews existing literature on nutrition politics and policy. We identify a number of recurring themes surrounding knowledge; politics, and capacities. While the literature on nutrition politics and policy is growing; we demonstrate how there are a number of gaps in our un…

The economic rationale for investing in stunting reduction
This paper outlines the economic rationale for investments that reduce stunting. We present a framework that illustrates the functional consequences of stunting in the 1000 days after conception throughout the life cycle: from childhood through to old age. We summarize the key empirical literature around each of the links in the life cycle, highlighting gaps in knowledge where they exist. We construct credible estimates of benefit–cost ratios for…

Whose Goals Count? Lessons for Setting the Next Development Goals
This IDS Bulletin brings together a set of articles about the lessons to be learned from the experience of the Millennium Development Goals, with a strong focus on Southern voices. The articles suggest that the MDG framework has had modest real world traction except where international aid has been significant. It has however successfully focused the global policy spotlight on some key development issues, and also improved the availability of dat…
Seeing the Unseen: Breaking the Logjam of Undernutrition in Pakistan
After a lost decade, there is clearly a groundswell of momentum for nutrition in Pakistan, driven by a confluence of policy, evidence and events. This momentum needs to be sustained at the national level, reinforced at the provincial and sub?provincial levels, and converted into action. The articles in this IDS Bulletin highlight some of the key features of undernutrition in Pakistan and its drivers. The correlates of undernutrition in Pakistan a…

Trust, Membership in Groups, and Household Welfare: Evidence from KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa
This paper explores the relationship between group membership and trust. Specifically, we examine (1) the importance of trust in the decision to join groups, (2) the subsequent ability of groups to generate trust, and (3) the influence of group membership and trust on a measure of well-being, per capita household income. We use longitudinal data from KwaZulu-Natal Province, South Africa, allowing us to control for potential simultaneity and measu…
Reinveting Development Research
Development research, despite or due to its emergence out of the colonial and postcolonial era, seeks to make a difference by focusing on issues of power and marginality. This makes it even more loaded and contested than other kinds of research, along with the responsibility to have policy influence. Despite tremendous achievements in development indicators, which researchers must subject to critical scrutiny, several challenges remain. These inc…
Does Cash Crop Adoption Detract from Child Care Provision? Evidence from Rural Nepal
Using data from fieldwork conducted in Nepal, the impact of a project designed to commercialize vegetables and fruits—the Vegetable and Fruit Cash Crop Program (VFC)—on male and female time allocation is examined. Using a rigorous time collection methodology, activity patterns in households that adopt and do not adopt the new technology are profiled. Very few studies examine changing activity patterns of both men and women in response to commerci…

Lifting the Curse: Overcoming Persistent Undernutrition in India
With rapid economic growth and little progress in banishing undernutrition, India is an economic powerhouse and a nutritional weakling. This article surveys the others in this collection and concludes that such a situation represents a failure of governance at many levels. The article suggests a number of ways in which the state and civil society in India can strengthen the governance of nutrition in terms of capability, responsiveness and accoun…

Factors affecting early enrollment in the WIC program
This paper identifies some of the main determinants of early enrollment in the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Special Supplemental Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC). With data from Massachusetts, a binary choice model was used to determine why some women join the program in the first, versus the second or third, trimesters of pregnancy. Several studies have demonstrated that nutritional supplementation of the mother during pregnancy…
Gender and Poverty in Ghana: A Descriptive Analysis of Selected Outcomes and Processes
The paper presents some expenditure?based and basic needs poverty indicators for Ghana, disaggregated by gender. The similarity of living standards as measured across a number of indicators and gender groupings may seem surprising, but the paper suggests that the real gender?differentiation most visibly manifests itself in the inability of women to raise living standards due to poorer educational enrolment and attainment and heavier time burdens.…

Gender bias in the allocation of resources within households in Burkina Faso: A disaggregated outlay equivalent analysis
Discrimination in favour of boys in household resource allocation has been shown in a number of studies in South Asia; yet a lack of this discrimination has been shown in the few studies that have addressed this issue in Sub‐Saharan Africa. None of these studies have examined the issue differentiating rural and urban, agroecological zone, and income stratum, yet there is theoretical reason to believe intra‐household resource allocation would diff…

Are pre‐schoolers from female‐headed households less malnourished? A comparative analysis of results from Ghana and Kenya
This article compares household income level and pre‐schooler weight‐for‐age across household groupings that are differentiated by female headship variables which are reflective of the heterogeneity of female‐headed households. Data from Kenya indicate that it is the interaction of income and female headship at low‐income levels which promotes pre‐schooler nutritional status. For Ghana, incomes have to be quite large (in the upper tercile of the …

Unitary Versus Collective Models of the Household: Is It Time to Shift the Burden of Proof
Most development objectives focus on the well-being of individuals. Policies are targeted to increase the percentage of individuals who avoid poverty, who can read, who are free from hunger and illness, or who can find gainful employment. Individual welfare, however, is based in large part on a complex set of interactions among family members. Until recently most policy analyses implicitly viewed the household as having only one set of preference…
On the Rational Sequencing of Enterprise Reform
Experience in the transition from a state‐owned and planned economy to a privately‐owned market economy has already shown that the processes involved are more complex than initially thought. In particular, identifying the appropriate sequence for introducing specific measures is a major element in the process. Rather than opting for immediate divestment of all state assets, large, medium‐sized and small, with consequent problems of ownership and …

Gender Issues for Food Security in Developing Countries: Implications for Project Design and Implementation
Women in developing countries play a crucial role in meeting the food and nutrition needs of their families through the “three pillars” of food security—food production, economic access to food, and nutrition security. Empirical evidence shows that income increases controlled by women have a greater impact on household food security, child health and schooling than those controlled by men. Despite women's importance, they are constrained by lower…

Social capital and household welfare in South Africa, 1993–98
The aim in this study is to determine the nature of the causal relationship, if any, between ‘social capital’, as measured by household membership in formal and informal groups and household welfare in South Africa. Using a recently collected panel data set in South Africa's largest province, we estimate per capita expenditure functions including measures of social capital. After controlling for fixed effects and simultaneity, we find social capi…
