National Nutrition Council(NNC)

Warm greetings! 

I would like to request annual data at the province and municipal / city level for key nutrition indicators of children age . The ideal dataset would include
- year 
- province / city / municipality
- rate of having normal weight-for-age, overweight, underweight, severely underweight
- rate of having normal height-for-age, tall, stunted, severely stunted
- rate of having normal weight-for-height, overweight, wasted, severely wasted
with data being broken down by gender and age group for the years 2008-2018. 

Thank you.

P.S. In addition, the ideal data would also include the population of children (apart from just the rate of incidence) by age cohort and gender. Thanks.
