Tackling malnutrition in South Sudan – in pictures
Approx reading time:
Almost a billion people are affected by hunger, chronic undernourishment and famine worldwide, the vast majority in developing countries. Malnutrition claims the lives of over two million children every year.
In South Sudan, Malaria Consortium is working with local communities and the Ministry of Health to tackle under-nutrition in young children. Our emergency nutrition programme – supported by UKAid from the UK Department for International Development and United Nations agencies – trains and supports community health workers to diagnose and treat malnutrition in the community.
