l’IMC et le gain de poids gestationnel sont des facteurs déterminants des risques de
résultats de grossesse, de la santé de la mère et de l’enfant. Cette étude analyse l’incidence de la
nutrition chez les femmes enceintes sur la santé néonatale au Bénin. Les résultats d’estimation... par les
équations simultanées montrent que le gain de poids gestationnel insuffisant ou excessif a des effets
néfastes aussi bien sur la santé de la mère que sur celui de l’enfant. L’étude montre que la majorité des
femmes béninoises étudiées, avec un IMC faible ou normal n’atteignent pas le gain de poids
gestationnel recommandé en fin de grossesse. La plupart des nouveau-nés de petits poids de naissance
sont nés de femme dont l’IMC est normal, ce qui renforce la théorie bien connue que l’IMC n’est pas un
bon indicateur de la malnutrition chez la femme enceinte.

Women have less access to the development services and support – such as adequate healthcare, education and
modern technology – that make people more resilient to climate change and other shocks and stressors.2
Women’s unequal access to resources, their disproportionate responsibility for ca...re of dependents (typically unpaid),
and the insecurity and precariousness of their paid labour all contribute to the feminisation of poverty and women’s
heightened vulnerability to climate hazards. Climate change is a multiplier of existing vulnerabilities and threatens to
reverse hard-earned development gains for all people, and particularly for women.
