Mekonnen Haileselassie et al.

Summary: This study aimed to assess energy and nutrient intakes among 6-23 months old children in Northern Ethiopia during religious fasting and non-fasting periods.

Formative Research to Inform Market-Based Interventions to Increase Egg Purchase and Consumption in Tigray, Ethiopia

Sarah McClung et al.

Summary: Animal source foods (ASFs) have the potential to improve child health, but are often underused in malnourished communities. This study aimed to increase the intake of ASFs by children in rural Tigray, Ethiopia through market-based interventions. The researchers found that consumers were receptive to egg consumption and recognized its health benefits, but egg retailers primarily functioned as aggregators. This highlights the importance of formative research in designing behavior change interventions.
