a. Study design We will use a community-based Cluster Randomized Control Trial (CRCT) to examine the impact of a peer counselling infant feeding education program starting in the third trimester of pregnancy to one year after delivery, to improve child feeding practices, child growth and reduce the prevalence of malnutrition in their children. This will result in two study groups (see diagram). The outcome assessments will be made on a cohort of infant-mother dyads measured at baseline and at follow up visits because we expect a likely high correlation between baseline and follow up outcome measures, thus making this approach the most efficient study design.
