Reduce anemia among under5 o 15% by 2030

The Egyptian Ministry of Health and Population commits to reduce the prevalence of anaemia from 27% to less than 15% among 12.7 million children under five years of age in the country by 31 December 2030. This will be achieved by accelerating scale-up of implementation of high-impact nutrition-specific and sensitive interventions. Progress will be assessed through the Egyptian Family Health Issues Survey, to be implemented every 4 years.
