Abstract

Tana River County, situated in the Kenyan Coastal region, is divided into five sub-counties: Bangale, Galyedertu, Galole, Tana Delta, and Tana North. The county encompasses three primary livelihood zones: pastoral, marginal mixed farming, and mixed farming. In February 2024, the County Department of Health, with support from UNICEF and other implementing partners (Kenya Red Cross, ACF, WHH and World Vision), conducted a Nutrition SMART survey across the entire county. The survey's main objective was to assess malnutrition prevalence among children aged 6 to 59 months, pregnant and breastfeeding mothers. Specifically, it aimed to determine the nutritional status of children, women of reproductive age (15-49 years), immunization coverage (measles, OPV1/3, and Vitamin A supplementation), deworming coverage for children aged 12 to 59 months, prevalence of common illnesses, WASH, maternal and child health care practices, water and sanitation hygiene practices, complementary feeding among 6 - 23 months, and the prevailing food security situation in the county.
