Abstract

The objective of this article was to evaluate the factors related to poor child nutrition in the General Antonio Elizalde canton (Bucay) in the period 2022. A quantitative methodology was used, through field research in the General Antonio Elizalde Canton ( Bucay), province of Guayas, with a type of descriptive, cross-sectional and observational research. All children and parents who attend the Campamento Ave Guayas PRONACA Regional Office were considered as inclusion criteria, surveys were applied that allowed the collection of information where it was possible to determine that the majority of families living in the community of the General canton Antonio Elizalde (Bucay) work together, and generally the children stay in the care of the grandparents and on other occasions alone, it is also observed that they became parents at an early age (16-21 years), which greatly influences the little education that parents can have. Based on this, the families surveyed are in support of the implementation of talks and workshops that contribute to the nutritional education of their families by the PRONACA company, allowing them to improve the nutritional conditions of their children.Key words: food, malnutrition, family, education
