    Using behavior change approaches to improve complementary feeding practices

    Improving complementary feeding of children 6 to 24 months of age requires an understanding of what drives feeding behaviors in specific cultural and economic contexts and which systematic approaches best facilitate beneficial and feasible changes. This paper analyzes social and behavior change approaches and use of program delivery platforms at scale that resulted in documented improvements in Bangladesh, Malawi, Peru and Zambia. The authors conclude that complementary feeding practices, particularly dietary diversity, can be improved rapidly in a variety of settings through available program platforms if interventions focus on specific constraints and strategies encourage caregivers to prepare and feed appropriate foods.

Consumer perspectives on ICS differ substantially from those of product designers and health programmers, often leading to suboptimal uptake and adoption, and thus limiting health benefits. Study findings led to design changes in cookstove features that better reflect consumer preferences and highlighted consumer education priorities related to clean cooking behaviors.
