A joint effort of MSF, UNICEF and the World Food Programme.
2005
Malnutrition in Maradi
Hunger gap
39,158 admissions
60% of admissions in 13 weeks
95% of admissions < 85 cm
40%+ between 75 & 85 cm
Program indicators 2005
91.4% cure rate
3.2% death rate
4.7% default rate
December 2005
A recent survey… confirms that the children of Niger still face high levels of malnutrition.
Malnutrition rates range from 9% to 18%, and inadequate infant and
young child feeding practices are likely causes.
Cultural factors and social behaviours, such as inadequate infant and
young child feeding practices, have a major impact...
Malnutrition conceptual framework

CARE
or
HEALTH ?
The most common cause of
protein-energy malnutrition
is parents’ poor child feeding
and caring practices….”
