Innovations and COVID-19 Adaptations in the Management of Child Wasting

July 1, 2020

Action Against Hunger, in a coordinated effort with UNICEF and the US Centers for Disease Control, is conducting the Innovations and COVID-19 Adaptations in the Management of Child Wasting Project, a global study to capture adaptations and associated learning over the course of the pandemic. As part of this initiative, we invite organizations around the world to come together a share experiences and resources to:

Identify and track the modifications implemented during COVID-19;
Extract learning on the operational implications of the approaches; and,
Facilitate uptake of this evidence to inform short- and long-term nutrition programming.
