India is the second most populous and the seventh largest country in the world. With only 2. 4 per cent of the world's total land area, India has to support 15 percent of the world's total population of around 4. 5 billions in 1981. One of the salient demographic features of our country is that it has a sizable proportion of young population. According to 1981 estimate, 39 per cent of the total population of 685 million people were in 0-14 age group, of whom about 78 per cent lived in rural areas and 22 per cent in urban areas. There were about 121 million children in the age group of 0-6 years. According to population projections, India's child population would increase from 263 million in 1981 to 333 million in 2001 i.e. more than the total population of USSR. Thus children and people in reproductive age groups predominate the population composition creating an unfavorable age structure with a large proportion of juvenile population, resulting in a high dependency ratio and slower rate of increase in country's labour force. This high proportion of child population in our country warrants the need for providing living conditions which will enable children to realize their full potentialities for development.

Health and Nutrition Education (HNE) is a tool to bring a change in the behavior of individuals for the protection and promotion of their health and well-being. The increase in the knowledge of the community about health and nutrition has been found an effective tool in preventing malnutrition and enhancing the child survival rate by Punhani and Mahajan (1989) also. The Minister of State for Youth Affairs, Sports, Women and Child Development, Ms. Mamata Banerjee, informed the House on 15th July, 1991 that a survey conducted by the Indian Council of Medical Research under the National Nutrition Monitoring Bureau {NNMB) during 1972-79 in 10 states revealed that about 24 per cent of the women had low body weight and height (Parliament News, 1991). Women's well-being is also essential for child survival. Women and children both need special care.
