Explaining child nutrition in Vietnam

Article Abstract:

Several factors contribute to the existence of child malnutrition in Vietnam. Lower parental education levels and belonging to an ethnic minority are two factors that strongly influence whether a child receives enough nutrition. Additionally, the order of a child's birth also strongly influences whether nutritional needs are met. However, gender bias appeared to play no role in whether a child received adequate levels of nutrition.
