Summary Excerpt Details

Mothers play such a big role in raising and nurturing children and shaping their futures. They are essentially the first educators of children. But is this role a significant one? This paper seeks to answer the question: “What is the effect of education of women on the malnutrition rate of children?” If we can prove that education of women has a positive effect on the well-being of children, even small changes in the policies and economic foundations of underdeveloped and developing countries will have a huge impact on the well-being of children and consequently, in the sustenance of government institutions. It can have a substantial impact on the well-being of future generations.

In this paper, I will discuss applicable literature on the topic, collect data, analyze the data on a regression model, and discuss the results of my findings.
