Simplified approaches, rather than being single prescriptive approaches, include a range of adaptations to treatment protocols and programmes for the community-based management of acute malnutrition (CMAM). These approaches aim to improve coverage and/or reduce costs.

It also provides a synthesis of evidence on treatment outcomes, highlighting some characteristics and discussions around outcomes, and presenting gaps identified by researchers and implementers. It can provide insights to implementers to design programs for CMAM in India. Click here to read more.
