WHAT WE DO
Catching malnutrition before it's too late.
Acute malnutrition can turn fatal in weeks. Our nutrition teams work at the community level — screening children early, treating those affected, and teaching caregivers how to keep it from happening again.
Our interventions include:
- Screening for acute malnutrition — regular mid-upper-arm-circumference (MUAC) checks in communities and camps.
- Therapeutic & supplementary feeding — ready-to-use therapeutic food for children who need it most.
- Caregiver nutrition education — practical guidance mothers can use every day.
- Growth monitoring — tracking every child's progress until they're fully recovered.

A story from our Nutrition programme
“My youngest was screened at a village outreach and started supplementary feeding within a week. She's a different child now — full of energy.”
