ABSTRACT
This study aimed to measure the effect of the nutrition program for children aged under 5 years in the Democratic Republic of Congo(DRC) by poverty line and that provide the evidence for managing the nutrition program. The national poverty level in the DRC is low at 176th among 187 UN member countries, 74% of households make a living under poverty line per day. The government of the DRC proposed various policies through 'The Democratic Republic of Congo Response Plan 2017-2018)'. In particular, the government has established the policy focused on eradicating poverty eradication. However, there is a lack of evidence for making the policy. This study used a Non equivalent control pretest-posttest study design in the DRC. The results of this study is considered that poverty line households took an attitude of reducing the financial burden by attending the nutrition program. These results of study are expected the evidence for making policy of the DRC.
