This research proposal outlines a study on the double burden of malnutrition (DBM) in Pakistan, defined by the simultaneous presence of under-nutrition and over-nutrition. It aims to explore the relationship between DBM and socioeconomic inequities, including factors like income, education, healthcare access, and food/water availability. The research will employ a systematic review methodology, searching databases like CINAHL, Medline, and PubMed for articles published from 2016-2020 using keywords related to DBM, socioeconomic factors, and Pakistan. Data analysis will involve thematic analysis to synthesize findings. The proposal highlights the strengths of a systematic review, such as its comprehensive scope, while acknowledging limitations like publication bias. To ensure validity, the study will prioritize high-quality studies and utilize a critical appraisal tool. The findings are expected to provide insights for public health interventions and will be disseminated to relevant authorities. The study builds on existing evidence of DBM in Pakistan, citing research that links it to factors like lack of breastfeeding and media access.
