The problem
Intervention: Community-based provision of Small-Quantity Lipid-Based Nutrient Supplements (SQ-LNS) combined with structured community growth monitoring, guided by a participatory Theory of Change
Who it was tested with: Children treated for malnutrition and their mothers/caregivers in Mali.
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 quoted passage was not found in the text] "developed a robust 'Theory of Change' (ToC) for how relapse can be reduced in Mali and propose an intervention package that is feasible for the health system to adopt with minimal external support" - this describes a planning/design study, not an evaluated outcome, so it is best classified at the lowest evidence tier with an inconclusive outcome direction.
The description is a conceptual/theoretical framework rather than a tested intervention with measured outcomes, so effectiveness cannot yet be judged.
