The main questions it aims to answer are:\n\n* Does a community-based intervention using indigenous structures significantly improve the uptake of maternal health services (ANC, delivery, and PNC)?\n* Does the intervention effectively reduce the prevalence of maternal depression during the pregnancy and postpartum periods?\n* To what extent does the intervention improve the nutritional status (reducing thinness and stunting) of mothers and their children? Researchers will compare a group of women receiving counseling from trained indigenous social support groups to a control group receiving only the routine health and nutrition education provided by the standard healthcare system to see if the indigenous approach leads to better health and nutritional outcomes.\n\nParticipants will:\n\n* Receive four counseling sessions during pregnancy (starting before 16 weeks of gestation) and four additional sessions during the lactation period, conducted in their homes by trained social support groups.\n* Receive educational leaflets containing core health and nutrition messages and appropriate pictures.\n* Participate in two rounds of surveys (baseline, and endline) involving interviewer-administered questionnaires.\n* Undergo physical measurements, specifically mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC), to assess nutritional status.",[29,30],"Maternal and Child Health","Maternal Nutrition","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-04-03",{"date":34,"type":35},"2026-04-13","ACTUAL",{"date":37,"type":23},"2026-04-01",{"date":39,"type":23},"2028-06-30",{"name":41,"class":42},"Bahir Dar University","OTHER",1,{"id":45,"slug":46,"hasResults":11,"nctId":47,"briefTitle":48,"officialTitle":49,"acronym":50,"eligibilityCriteria":51,"healthyVolunteers":17,"sex":52,"minAge":53,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":54,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":56,"phases":4,"briefSummary":57,"conditions":58,"keywords":61,"overallStatus":31,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":68,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":69,"startDateStruct":71,"completionDateStruct":73,"leadSponsor":75,"locationsCount":43},"100604204","a-mixed-methods-study-on-how-urban-slum-food-environments-influence-caregivers-feeding-practices-for-children-under-five-years-in-pune-india-100604204","NCT07146477","A Mixed Methods Study on How Urban Slum Food Environments Influence Caregivers' Feeding Practices for Children Under Five Years in Pune, India","From Markets to Meals: A Mixed Methods Study on How Urban Slum Food Environments Influence Caregivers' Feeding Practices for Children Under Five Years in Pune, India","FEFC","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* For Family Units:\n\n  1.
