Reducing child deaths in Mali

The nutritional status of children in Mali is grim. When Habi Karembé was brought to a MDG-F-supported village health center last spring, she weighed just 4-1/2 pounds. Today, she is back in her village and thriving.



Our Joint Programmes

Improving Child Nutrition and Food Security in the most vulnerable municipalities in Mali

The joint programme, Improving Child Nutrition and Food Security in the most vulnerable municipalities in Mali, applies an integrated approach to achieve four primary outcomes - enhanced food security, improved nutritional status of women and children through appropriate prevention and treatment, the inclusion of nutrition and food security aspects in relevant national and community based frameworks and enhanced national capacities for appropriate assessment and monitoring, including improved responsiveness to changes in levels of nutrition and food insecurity in targeted communities.
