Periodical deworming and weekly supplementation of iron was offered free of charge to more than 52 000 women in the province. The acceptance of the intervention and the nutritional outcomes were followed up. In March 2008 the programme was expanded to cover 250 000 and the management handed over to provincial authorities.
