Data for the paper on “Does early growth failure influence later school performance? A cohort study in Karonga district, northern Malawi”

Data was collected at birth, with follow-up after a year and with further rounds of anthropometric data for all children below the age of 10 between 2008-2011. Individual and household-level socio-demographic and schooling data were also combined to account for socio-economic and schooling histories of participants from 2007-2015, allowing us to examine the relationship between stunting in early years and school outcomes at older ages.
