In Peru, half of the children under the age of 2 have anemia, a condition that is associated with cognitive and psychomotor delays. Unlike other interventions that provide only education, Socios en Salud Sucursal's approach combines educational videos with hands-on sessions led by community health workers to improve the long-term feeding behaviors and hygiene practices of caregivers and children alike.
