Samenvatting	The IYCF assessment is a set of core indicators developed by WHO and UNICEF to measure the prevalence of key feeding practices in children aged 0–23 months. The indicators track six essential markers: exclusive breastfeeding in infants under 6 months, continued breastfeeding in the second year, timely introduction of complementary foods at 6–8 months, and adequate dietary diversity and meal frequency by 6–23 months. These indicators are foundational for monitoring nutrition outcomes and evaluating maternal and child health programs worldwide.	The Maternal Diet Quality Index (MDQI) is a composite measure of maternal nutrition that evaluates diet quality during pregnancy and postpartum using a scored framework. Adapted from general population dietary quality indices, the MDQI emphasizes nutrients critical for fetal development and maternal health: folate, iron, calcium, protein, and micronutrient-rich foods. Use in research and clinical nutrition assessment to characterize maternal diet quality and its associations with pregnancy outcomes and lactation.
