Rwanda Stunting Prevention and Reduction Project

The objective of the Rwanda Stunting Prevention and Reduction Project is to contribute to the reduction in the stunting rate among children under five years of age (with a focus on children under two). The project will support the government to adopt and implement a new national strategy to improve the visibility of stunting in Rwanda, and to deliver harmonized behavior change messages across various platforms. 

Project components include: 

1. Prevention of stunting at community and household levels. This component will support the government to improve understanding of stunting in Rwanda, and deliver harmonized behavior change messages at all levels and across several key sectors.

2. High-impact Health and Nutrition Services. It will address key gaps in service delivery and aims to improve utilization and coverage of an enhanced package of high-impact nutrition and health interventions.
