Grow Great: Stunting Prevention & Healthy Child Development

At present, 1 in 4 children in South Africa is stunted. Stunting prevents children worldwide from achieving their full potential – it impairs a child’s brain development, performance in school, and learning ability for the rest of their life, and it can begin even before a baby is born. This video series is intended to be used as a teaching tool with stunting patients.

This educational, animated video series explains how stunting can be prevented through nutrition, routine immunization, bonding, and other health practices. Designed with the Grow Great Campaign in South Africa, this series is intended for community health education and for health workers to use as teaching tools with patients.

Videos are available in English, Sepedi, Setswana, Swati, Xhosa, and Zulu, and cover topics such as stunting, nutrition, breastfeeding, mental health, pregnancy, and early child development.
