# Malawi Child Nutrition Dashboard
Exploratory dashboard for child nutrition status (stunting, wasting, underweight,
HAZ/WAZ/WHZ) by district, IHPS panel, with a pre- vs post-2015/16 drought comparison.
## Run locally
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
streamlit run app.py
```
## Deploy for free (same as the rest of the seminar group)
1. Push this folder to a public GitHub repo (include app.py, requirements.txt,
and the data/ folder).
2. Go to
share.streamlit.io, sign in with GitHub.
3. "New app" -> pick the repo -> main file path app.py -> Deploy.
## Data
- data/malawi_child_nutrition.csv: cleaned child-level IHPS data (district names and
region codes standardized; wave 1-4 = 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019).
- data/malawi_districts.geojson: Malawi's 28 districts, sourced from Natural Earth
(public domain, no attribution required, but nice to credit).
## Notes
- The "Pre- vs Post-Drought Comparison" panel always compares 2013 vs 2016 regardless
of the Wave/Year filter above it, since that is the core DiD comparison.
- Rainfall deficit (2016) is only populated for the 2016 wave; other waves will show
no data for that outcome.
