16 Oct 2019 --- Across the globe, at least one in three children under the age of five is malnourished and not developing properly. This is according to a new report released by UNICEF entitled The State of the World’s Children 2019: Children, food and nutrition. UNICEF identifies the “triple burden” of undernutrition, hidden hunger and overweight as the main threats to the survival, growth and development of children, young people, economies and nations. This comes on World Food Day.
