The problem
Intervention: Provision of nutrition education and distribution of eggs as an affordable source of animal protein to families with toddlers, with monitoring by local health cadres
Who it was tested with: Families with toddlers in a partner village in Indonesia.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"The method applied was Participatory Action Research (PAR), consisting of stages such as socialization, nutrition education, egg distribution to families with toddlers, and monitoring of both egg consumption and parental nutrition knowledge." The study measured changes in knowledge, consumption frequency, and cadre involvement before and after the intervention, but the authors acknowledge that more sustained effort is needed to demonstrate impact on actual growth outcomes.
No quantitative measures of stunting reduction provided; no comparison group; unclear if improved knowledge and consumption led to measurable reductions in stunting prevalence; limited detail on baseline and endline measurements.
