Health and Nutrition Programs — Revision Notes
⚡ 30-Second Revision
Poshan 2.0: WCD/Anganwadi. PM POSHAN: Education/school meals. Norm ≠ consumption. Screening ≠ diagnosis. A target is not an achieved outcome.
2-Minute Revision
Programmes address different life stages and needs. Focused SC/ST outreach can improve access to broadly eligible services without changing their eligibility rules. PM POSHAN's primary and upper-primary meal norms differ. Swasthya is an information initiative, while the 2023 sickle-cell mission has a future elimination goal. Evaluate actual use, quality, follow-up and subgroup coverage rather than equating activity counts with health outcomes.
5-Minute Revision
Map programme, ministry, delivery platform and target group. Calculate daily coverage for eighty meals among one hundred eligible pupils. Explain why that figure cannot establish annual nutrition improvement. Then compare a discrimination barrier with a transport barrier and propose different evidence and responses for each. Finish by separating screening, further assessment and continuing care.
