Project #2 - Nutritional Assessment

​     Three years have passed since our last visit. Again we measured children's heights and weights.   This time around almost 70 children were measured. Those that were tested 3 years ago were compared to their current state while the others were be compared to normal children. Students in our Research Methods class conducted the analysis of this data. The results showed significant progress in the nutrition levels of the children in the community.

To give us additional insight into their diet, we handed out 5 Food Diaries to women in the community, All five were filled out and returned to us.  The results were analyzed in our International health class.
