From 2024-2026 the Eleanor Crook Foundation funded Johns Hopkins to work with Anweshan and Helen Keller International to support the government of Nepal in planning for the monitoring systems aspects of the introduction and scale-up of multiple micronutrient supplements (MMS) in place of iron folic acid (IFA) for pregnant women. These outputs are relevant to DataDENT priorities and so are being disseminated through the DataDENT tool & resource library.
