This book investigates the nutritional status of children from ethnic minority groups in Bangladesh, a region where such data is notably absent. The author, Md. Nuruzzaman Haque, addresses the critical global issue of child nutrition by exploring the unique dietary practices, hygiene and sanitation conditions, and health-seeking behaviors within these distinct cultural groups, while also examining their socioeconomic circumstances.

The book addresses a critical gap in data concerning ethnic child nutrition in Bangladesh, a topic of significant global relevance. By examining dietary practices, hygiene, sanitation, and health-seeking behaviors within specific cultural contexts, it aims to provide a comprehensive overview. The inclusion of socioeconomic factors further contextualizes the findings. The work is positioned as an important attempt to illuminate a under-researched area.
