Child malnutrition is a silent emergency that requires urgent action
Nutritional deficiency hampers physical growth & cognitive development, hinders education attainment, limits livelihood opportunities, perpetuates poverty & crime.
– 1/3rd of children under 5 yrs are stunted in India
– 20% of children under 5 are wasted
– 59% adolescent girls are anemic
– 20% of maternal deaths are linked to anemia-Â
– Inadequate nutrition fuels a human development crisis that can cost ~3% of GDP
Nutrition adequacy, awareness and advocacy can save lives, catalyse sustainable social impact & national growth
Mothers & children form a critically vulnerable group at the core of an inter-generational cycle of malnutrition. We cannot hope to attain sustainable social impact or socioeconomic growth without ending malnutrition first. Adequate nutrition is change
