Social and Behavioral Determinants of Child Undernutrition in Camasca, Honduras

Abstract

Child undernutrition remains a significant health challenge around the world despite its high-priority status on the global health agenda. While the global burden of child undernutrition has reached historically low levels, it remains a pressing issue in rural communities of Central America. Through a partnership with a grassroots intervention targeting child undernutrition, this study sought to explore predictors of child nutrition knowledge and child growth outcomes in the community of Camasca in Honduras.
