Urgency To Address Malnutrition

Good nutrition is the key to overall growth for children and healthy life. The effects of any form of malnutrition are enormous and long-lasting. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of zero hunger by 2030 seem difficult unless more collaborative efforts are made urgently through national as well as international stakeholders. The resultant effects due to malnutrition, malnourishment, and starvation are hindrances to the overall development of countries around the globe. The progress made to reduce problems of malnutrition is slow and millions of people are at higher risk of dying prematurely every year.
