Case studies
Chronic malnutrition remains high in Tanzania despite government’s effort to combat it. Malnutrition is much higher in the poorest households. According to the 2018 National Nutrition Survey (2014-2018), 32.1% of children under 5 in Mainland Tanzania are stunted; a decrease from 34% in 2016 (MoHCDGEC, MoH, NBS, 2016 & UNICEF, 2018).
