Abstract Despite significant progress made previously and the recognized health benefits of optimal feeding practices, ensuring a minimum acceptable diet in developing countries like Ethiopia remains formidable challenge. Additionally, there is scarcity data this area. Therefore, our study aims to identify predictors using powerful tool called complementary log‐log regression analysis. Thus, it contributes accelerating pathway ending child undernutrition thereby promoting health. A multilevel analysis was conducted among weighted sample 1427 children aged 6‐23 months 2019 Ethiopian Demographic Health Survey (EDHS). The EDHS stratified selected two stages. defined as composite fed with both dietary diversity meal frequency. Data extraction took place between August 1 30, 2023. We used STATA software version 17 for model fitted diet. p‐value ≤0.05 declare statistically predictors. Only 10.44% (95CI: 8.90‐12.15) meet Child (18‐23 month) (AOR = 1.78, 95CI:1.14‐2.78)], mother's educational level (secondary above education) 279,95CI: 1.51‐5.15), number three [(AOR 0.78,95CI: 0.53‐0.94], institutional delivery [AOR 1.77,95CI: 1.11‐3.11], having postnatal‐check‐up 2.33,95CI: 1.59‐3.41] high community poverty 0.49,95CI: 0.29‐0.85) were found be In Ethiopia, only one ten achieve Which lower than global report findings (16%). Enhancing maternal education programs family planning strategies reduce household size are essential. Besides, encouraging deliveries postnatal check‐ups also recommended. It necessary implement targeted interventions reduction communities ensure that families can afford nutritious diets their children.

Background Despite prior progress and the proven benefits of optimal feeding practices, improving child dietary intake in developing countries like Ethiopia remains challenging. In Ethiopia, over 89% children fail to meet minimum acceptable diet. Understanding geographical disparity determinants diet can enhance promoting growth. Methods Spatial multiscale geographically weighted regression analysis was conducted among 1,427 sample aged 6–23 months. ArcGIS Pro SatScan version 9.6 were used map visual presentation distribution failed achieve A done identify significant level The statistical significance declared at P -value <0.05. Results Overall, 89.56% (95CI: 87.85–91.10%) months recommended Significant spatial clustering detected Somali, Afar regions, northwestern Ethiopia. Children living primary clusters 3.6 times more likely be unable (RR = 3.61, LLR =13.49, p < 0.001). Mother’s with no formal education (Mean 0.043, 0.000), family size above five 0.076, 0.005), No media access 0.059, 0.030), home delivery 0.078, 0.002), postnatal checkup 0.131, 0.000) found spatially Inadequate Conclusion Level varies geographically.

Previous studies in Ethiopia have focused on magnitude determinants a diet. However, much emphasis was not given to associated factors among 6–23 months old children enrolled Outpatient therapeutic programs (OTP), particularly, study area. This determines 6–23-month-old OTP. Methods A community-based cross-sectional conducted 346 randomly selected mothers with aged who were admitted The data collected using interviewer-administered structured questionnaires. entered, cleaned, coded into Epidata version 4.6, exported SPSS 26 further analysis. Multivariate logistic regression used assess MAD.
