Objective To investigate spatial heterogeneity of stunting prevalence among children in Côte d’Ivoire and examine changes in stunting between 1994 and 2011, to assess the impact of the 2002–2011 civil war that led to temporary partitioning of the country. Design Data from 1994, 1998 and 2011 Côte d’Ivoire Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) were analysed using a geostatistical approach taking into account spatial autocorrelation. Stunting data were interpolated using ordinary kriging; spatial clusters with high and low stunting prevalence were identified using Kulldorff spatial scan statistics. Multilevel multivariable logistic regression was then carried out, with year of survey as the main independent variable and an interaction term for time by geographic zone (Abidjan, South, North). Setting Côte d’Ivoire, West Africa. Subjects Children aged 0–35 months included in three DHS ( n 6709). Results Overall stunting prevalence was 30·7, 28·7 and 27·8 % in 1994, 1998 and 2011, respectively ( P =0·32). Clusters with high prevalence were found in 1994 (in the West region, P P P =0·01, respectively), but not in 2011. Abidjan was included in a cluster with low prevalence in all surveys ( P Conclusions In Côte d’Ivoire, significant changes in stunting prevalence were observed at the sub-national level between 1994 and 2011
