The problem
Intervention: Food assistance programmes
Who it was tested with: Children aged 0–59 months in Tanzania from households experiencing shocks.
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 study used the panel random-effects probit model to estimate the effects of household shocks on child nutrition status" and "the findings indicated that food assistance reduces the probability of a child being stunted and underweight." The design uses repeated measurements over time to assess nutrition outcomes, fitting the PRE_POST tier as it tracks changes across multiple survey waves without a randomized control group.
The document provides limited detail on the study design, sample size, effect sizes, and potential confounders. No specific statistics or confidence intervals are reported in this abstract.
