The CMAM Forum conducted a series of country case studies (CCSs) in India, Kenya, Niger and Yemen to synthesise learning about efficient and effective ways to disseminate and optimize use of information related to acute malnutrition-related information at the global and country level. The CCSs tried to capture what difference the CMAM Forum makes in the visited countries, what opportunities were not used or what and how to do better, and considered potential future collaborations.
