Adolescent Girls’ Nutrition-related Practices in the Amhara, Oromia, SSNP, and Tigray Regions of Ethiopia: A report on formative research findings and recommendations for Social and Behavior Change Communication Programming

The purpose of this new research is to contribute to the development of strategic communication interventions, alongside non-communication interventions, to help improve adolescent girls’ nutrition outcomes. Specifically, the findings and recommendations from the research will be used to support the development of the USAID/Growth through Nutrition project’s social and behavior change communication (SBCC) strategy for improving nutrition-related practices among adolescent girls and those who influence these practices. Other recommendations generated through this research may help to identify interventions in homes, communities, schools or other platforms through which programs can improve nutrition outcomes for adolescent girls.
