The Rang-Din Nutrition Study (RDNS) in Bangladesh demonstrated that small-quantity lipid-based nutrient supplements (SQ-LNS) can be integrated into an existing community health and development program serving rural populations, without building a parallel delivery system. This resource also shares practical lessons for policymakers and program managers on workforce preparation, supply chains, and sustained supervision.

This case study is the second in a three-part series that highlights the integration of SQ-LNS into different delivery platforms. The first case study focused on the Innovative Approaches for the Prevention of Childhood Undernutrition (PROMIS) project, which integrated SQ-LNS into wasting screening programs in Burkina Faso and Mali. The third, on the NutriVax trial in Nigeria, will be available soon.
