Abstract

The data regarding child malnutrition in Guatemala place it at the head of this issue in comparison to neighbouring countries. A significant interventionist effort took place over based all the traditional approaches to development. We present a systematic review of evidence that carried out these initiatives between 2014-2020. The scope and limitations of this project and the use of this evidence are discussed within a Policy-Evidence-Based model. Only 14 texts were included in the selection. The initiatives in the nutritional field are the most represented, but there is an appreciation for the relationship in the diversity of interventions implemented.
