Nutrition education effects on food and nutrition security for women living with HIV/Aids in Uganda
Body and mind
How should we support marginalized individuals? By providing nutritional support for their body or by supporting their mind and allowing them to see their potential? This paper explores ways to improve the welfare of women living with HIV, by addressing two obstacles that they face: the body and the mind. We use a randomized controlled trial to test the effectiveness of three information-focused treatments: a standard nutritional information camp…
Child development, growth and microbiota
BACKGROUND: Undernutrition impairs child development outcomes and growth. In this follow-up study of an open cluster-randomized intervention trial we examined the effects of an education package delivered to mothers in rural Uganda on their children's development, growth and gut microbiota at 36 months of age. METHODS: The parental trial included 511 mother-child pairs recruited when the children were 6-8 months. In that trial, a nutrition, stimu…
Realization of the right to adequate food and the nutritional status of land evictees
BACKGROUND: In developing countries like Uganda, the human right to adequate food (RtAF) is inextricably linked to access to land for households to feed themselves directly through production or means for its procurement. Whether RtAF is enjoyed among Ugandan land evictees, is unknown. We therefore explored this among land evictees (rights-holders) in Wakiso and Mpigi districts in rural Central Uganda. We assessed food accessibility and related c…
Nutrition, hygiene, and stimulation education to improve growth, cognitive, language, and motor development among infants in Uganda
Stunting is associated with impaired cognitive and motor function. The effect of an education intervention including nutrition, stimulation, sanitation, and hygiene on child growth and cognitive/language/motor development, delivered to impoverished mothers in Uganda, was assessed. In a community-based, open cluster-randomized trial, 511 mother/children dyads aged 6-8 months were enrolled to an intervention (n = 263) or control (n = 248) group. Th…
Contribution of forest foods to dietary intake and their association with household food insecurity
Objective To determine the contribution of forest foods to dietary intake and estimate their association with household food insecurity. Design Cross-sectional survey conducted among 279 households. Using a 7 d recall questionnaire, information on household food consumption was collected from women and used to determine the household dietary diversity score, food variety score and forest food consumption score (FFCS). Household Food Insecurity Ac…
