<str<strong>on</strong>g>Gender</str<strong>on</strong>g> Influences On Child Survival, Health And Nutriti<strong>on</strong>: A Narrative Review<br />
As menti<strong>on</strong>ed above in secti<strong>on</strong> two of this document we explore interventi<strong>on</strong>s that have addressed<br />
aspects of <strong>child</strong> <strong>health</strong> <strong>and</strong> nutriti<strong>on</strong> from a gender perspective. Despite having searched a number of<br />
<strong>on</strong>line informati<strong>on</strong> repositories <strong>and</strong> websites, as well c<strong>on</strong>tacting over 40 gender <strong>and</strong> <strong>health</strong> experts (see<br />
methods secti<strong>on</strong> below for more details) we were unable to find many evaluati<strong>on</strong>s of interventi<strong>on</strong>s that<br />
have adopted a gender perspective to address issues around <strong>child</strong> <strong>health</strong> <strong>and</strong> nutriti<strong>on</strong>. Secti<strong>on</strong> two of<br />
the review is therefore much briefer than secti<strong>on</strong> <strong>on</strong>e.<br />
Accompanying the Literature Review (secti<strong>on</strong>s 1 <strong>and</strong> 2) we have produced a Guidance document which<br />
explores the methods, tools <strong>and</strong> data sources for commissi<strong>on</strong>ing research <strong>on</strong> aspects of gender <strong>and</strong> <strong>child</strong><br />
<strong>survival</strong>. The Guidance first presents the key messages from the literature review, then in subsequent<br />
secti<strong>on</strong>s identifies key methods, tools <strong>and</strong> data sources for researching gender dimensi<strong>on</strong> of <strong>child</strong><br />
<strong>survival</strong>, <strong>health</strong> <strong>and</strong> nutriti<strong>on</strong>.<br />
