Background summary
The prevention of stunting and micronutrient deficiencies, control of overweight/ obesity and diet-related non-communicable diseases are in the heart of the Sustainable Development Goals and in all nutrition strategies in Southeast Asia. Unfortunately, progress has not always been significant and there is an urgency to understand and plan programs for improvement and impact at national and global level. However, the lack of comprehensive data in children is a barrier that prevents solutions and strategies to effectively address the dual burden of malnutrition and hidden hunger.
The South East Asian Nutrition Surveys II (SEANUTS II) builds on the work, experience, and findings gained from SEANUTS I in 2010-2011. Relatively high prevalence of stunting, overweight/ obesity iron deficiency anaemia and vitamin D insufficiency were found in the participating countries, sometimes with large differences across population groups. SEANUTS II is a multi-country collaboration with research institutes from four South East Asian countries - Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam.
Study objective
SEANUTS II will provide up-to-date and in-depth insights and confirmations into the nutritional status and lifestyle behaviors of almost 19,000 children between 6 months and 12 years old in a nationally representative population in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam
