First, we discuss the Nurture Early for Optimal Nutrition (NEON) pilot study, which explores the impact of participatory learning and action women's groups on improving infant feeding practices in South Asia. Next, we explore a qualitative synthesis of South Asian women's perspectives on maternity care services, shedding light on their unique experiences and challenges in accessing care.
