Rose equipped to fight child malnutrition, a story of hope in Ghana

By Stephen Frimpong Boadi

In Ghana, Rose, a mother from the Monkra Community, uses the lessons learned from the Mother-to-Mother support group to fight child malnutrition. By adopting the best feeding practices, she is ensuring that her children are well nourished and healthy. 

The largest global hunger crisis in modern history is unfolding before our eyes. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), Over 25 million children are at risk of starvation, and 149 million are stunted due to the lack of nutritious food. Hunger and malnutrition threaten children’s right to life, depriving them of their potential and condemn them to poor health, lack of education, and increased exposure to violence – impacting future generations. 

At World Vision, we envision a world where all children are healthy and well-nourished. Good health and nutrition empower children, families, and communities, enabling them to thrive.
