Nutrition
Proper nutrition is a powerful good: children who are well nourished are more likely to be healthy, productive and able to learn. Good nutrition benefits families, their communities and the world as a whole.
How can we produce a time series of childhood wasting estimates, accounting for climate impacts?
While the number of children being treated for wasting and other forms of life-threatening malnutrition has risen in recent years, only one in three children with severe wasting is reached with the timely treatment and care they need to survive and thrive.
Nutrition with a Focus on Child Obesity
We want to understand what children are eating and what influences these decisions. We will do this initially in the context of Scotland, but with scalability to have a global impact.
