At System level,Odisha has shown the path,implementing #Creches through District Mineral Funds,especially @DistAdmKeonjhar and not only focus of nutrition but promoting early childhood development #ECD
@jssbilaspur shows the difference well-run phulwaris/creches can make to the lives of toddlers and their mothers
Phulwaris help prevent kids (6 months to 3 yrs) reaching stage of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) by giving 3 nutritious meals, help parents work without worrying

Quality care for pregnant adolescents has been neglected | Key piece by @farnazs 📣
Pregnant adolescents are at risk of poorer pregnancy outcomes. Yet, provision of high-quality, evidence-based care to pregnant adolescents & mothers has been neglected.
In our new issue, a Health Policy explores this critical health issue: hubs.li/Q026XFYY0
ALT Cover of The Lancet, Oct 28 2023 issue. Quote: “Policy emphasis has overwhelmingly focused on the importance of reducing adolescent pregnancy. The opportunity to concurrently ensure provision of high-quality care to pregnant adolescents and mothers has been neglected.”

Sending a million people on the road - half of them children - can only cause untold tragedy. How can any foreign governments support this?
Israel’s military directed the evacuation of 1.1 million people. In 24 hours. Where and how can they find shelter? There are countless wounded, elderly, children, sick people after years of blockade. Tragedies keep piling up. Civilians are the victims. apnews.com/article/israel-pa…

Racism kills and climate change kills.
NEW research by Race & Health and Colleagues exploring racial injustice, climate change, and health is now out in @TheLancet . Read this paper and register for our upcoming event featuring this work using the link in our bio.
Who doesn’t want to write this in their methods section: ‘we waited till the children were asleep & crept in like ninjas’ 😆 talking to babies may boost myelin #ECD #nurturingcare theguardian.com/science/2023…
Congratulations to all winners, and a tribute to great work from @EkjutIndia @sachin_barbde @GagraiSumitra @Subha0419 🌟
You are so right to demand apology, @BellRibeiroAddy. I wonder what @DavidOlusoga @wmarybeard @simon_schama have to say about #Sunak response on #history. How disgraceful.
