This study was conducted to evaluate the contribution of a dairy goat development project in improving nutritional status of project participants in two districts of Eastern Ethiopia, and to find out better ways of doing so with on-going and to-be formulated livestock development projects. The over-all study included conducting surveys to examine impacts of the dairy goat development project, nutrition education based intervention, and post-intervention impact assessment.
