Commitment
At least 80% of malnourished children (severe acute malnutrition and moderate acute malnutrition) in regions with high security challenges are treated
Description
Routine screening and the use of plastic bracelets by community-based health workers will be used to improve the identification and treatment of malnourished children. Similarly, simplified protocols will be rolled out to ensure better targeting of child beneficiaries in order to reach the maximum number of individuals. Better organisation of actors working in emergency nutrition will be achieved in order to better coordinate the emergency response and reach the target populations.
