HMHB has recently set up the BEP-TAG with the mission to generate evidence and guidance to champion the adoption of BEP food/supplementation as an evidence-based intervention or standard of care in antenatal care programs to improve maternal nutrition and birth outcomes. The chat will disseminate the latest research and knowledge on BEP interventions for pregnant women and discuss its potential to help mothers and babies thrive. Participants will have the opportunity to ask live questions and gain insights into this promising intervention.
