How can health agencies achieve their goals?

Abstract

Reaching ambitious goals such as ending an epidemic in the world or in a specific region requires good strategies. This essay addresses the challenge of navigating toward a goal by exploring how India’s Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) could end severe malnutrition of children. The path toward goals is simple: Do more of what works and less of what doesn’t work, repeatedly, until the goal is reached.
