The Economic and Social Research Council collected data on maternal health and poverty in Malawi. They found that the mothers HIV risk decreases the quality and quantity of children. And that nutritional education of a mother greatly influences the type of food a child receives and increases consumption and labor supply for that household. If all women in Malawi had such a nutritional education, her children would be that much healthier as she makes smarter decisions on how to properly feed her family. #ssledz (esrc.ac.uk/my-esrc/grants/RES-183-25-0008/outputs/Read/3fab32e0-ee96-4c0f-ba8d-dd6f6bff70e2)
