Abstract: | Solutions to the problems of nutrition in the Sudan in general and its urban areas in particular must necessarily accept the interconnectedness of epidemiological, developmental, healthy demographic and cultural factors. Special attention is needed in the rural areas, among the poor urban migrants and with infants and children in general. The linkages between urban class formation, socio-economic stratification and malnutrition are strongly illustrated even with the limited number and quality of longitudinal or situational studies.
