Specifically, this synthesis explores the impact of the following variables on child malnutrition: • Income • Maternal education • Community infrastructure • Staple food prices • Changes in female labor participation in agriculture Regression analysis is used to examine the effects of these variables on weight-for-height and heightfor- age Z scores in the two recent studies of child health and nutrition in Mali.
