Six million children - Fight Hunger...
Transcript of Six million children - Fight Hunger...
Six million children suffer from undernutrition in India
40% of the children suffering from malnutrition in the world are Indian
Only 1% of these children have access to the services which can save them
Every year, one million children die in India, due to severe acute malnutrition

MALNUTRITION means.. That almost 40% of Indian children under five are too short for their
age (stunted), impacting their long-term health and development
That if the population of stunted children in India were a single country, it would be the ninth largest country in the world

This is the largest loss of human potential in human history
The estimated economic loss due to hunger in India is 276 000 crores by 2030

“For any child to be able to lead a healthy and active life, nutrition becomes extremely important. We have got so many hungry children in India who do not have proper diet, they have no access to food or water. They are malnourished. We need to look after them in creating a hunger-free India. To create a hunger-free India, let’s come together and support Fight Hunger Foundation."
