1 Self-Help Groups as a Platform to Improve Nutritional Status INSIGHTS FROM VILLAGE AUREPALLE RACHEL GANSON
2 Personal Background Chicago, Illinois, USA 12 th Standard 212 World Food Prize Borlaug-Ruan International Intern Interest in: Social/gender studies Health studies Southeast Asia & Africa 8-week study Selected by ICRISAT Mentor: Dr. Bantilan Nutrition & Gender Development
3 Literature Review Village and Household Economies in India s Semi-Arid Tropics by TS Walker and JG Ryan General introduction to ICRISAT & Village Level Studies (VLS) Prompted interest in female income and household nutritional status Enable Educational Achievement Improved Nutrition Maintain Productivity Ensure Mobility Sustain Income- Earning Opportunities Reduced Child Mortality Increased Life Expectancy Increased Uptake of Family Planning Decreased Fertility Decreased Population Growth
4 Literature Review (cont d) The Contribution of ICRISAT s Mandate Crops to Household Food Security by Kim Chung In-Depth review of nutrition Vitamins & Minerals provided by crops Aurepalle s preference for rice Quantity v. Quality of dietary protein Empowerment Through Social Capital Build-Up: Gender Dimensions in Technology Uptake by MCS Bantilan and R Padmaja Female Social Networking More informal groups Emphasize common interest Bridge caste, class, etc. Introduced information leading to this study s hypotheses and objectives Gender and Social Capital Mediated Technology Adoption by R Padmaja, MCS Bantilan, D Parthasarathy, and BVJ Gandhi Collective action yields successful adoption Females who increase income have more voice on topics such as: SHG Participation Education Consumption Other resources
5 Hypotheses Female participation in SHGs will enhance the nutrition status of the household. Involvement in SHGs will increase the consumption frequency of healthy, nutritious foods in the household diets. Anthropometric measurements taken for all households will show an increase in normal ranges of nutritional status among SHG households. Participation in SHGs provides more access to information on nutrition.
6 Objectives Does participation in SHGs improve the nutritional status of the household? In SHG households, are more nutritious foods consumed more consistently when compared to non-shg households? Does anthropometric data quantitatively show an increase in nutritional status for SHG households as opposed to non-shg households? Do SHGs provided information to members on accessible resources that can improve nutritional status?
7 Study Outline Review of Literature Formulation of Objectives & Hypotheses Development of Questionnaire & Focus Group Discussion Guide Data Collection Aurepalle Village Individual Interviews 8 SGH 6 Non-SHG Focus Group Discussions SHG Non-SHG Aurepalle VLS Data Analysis of Data & In-House Discussions Presentation Final Report

50 Recommendations Increase study depth Compare to village with lower SHG participation Increase sample size Measure daily caloric intake Go outside VLS sample size Promote home-production Provide incentive for consumption of cereal grains other than rice Not just how, but why Use SHG to disseminate nutritional information Pinpoint SHG members in neighborhoods Teach empowered women why nutrition should be a concern Promote collective action & adoption (between neighbors)
