Resumé du document : | The nutritional consequences of the food price increases are likely to be considerable, especially in poor urban populations of low income food deficit countries. Although economic improvements only produce slow reductions in child undernutrition rates, this relationship doesn’t seem to be the same in reverse. Whereas women are usually the last to benefit from increasing income, when the financial situation deteriorates they are first to make sacrifices.This has special consequences because of the critical importance of maternal nutrition both for her own health and well being, as well as for the survival, growth and development of her children. by Roger Shrimpton, Claudine Prudhon and Kaia Engesveen UNSCN News - No. 37 early-2009 ct |
