Improving nutrition in vulnerable population

By Roshni Vakilna

The joint Malnutrition Estimates which was released in April, 2021 reveals inadequate progress achieved in order to reach WHA 2025 targets and SDGs set for 2030. Though there is a global decline observed in stunting since 2000, but to reach the Global Nutrition Targets the pace of reduction needs to be faster. Globally, stunting affects 22.0% children under five years of age which means almost one child in every five children is stunted. In terms of absolute numbers, 149.2 million children under five globally were stunted . This data does not take impact of covid into account, and the effect of covid will unfold eventually to give an understanding of how far and grave the impact on stunting has been.
