Severe malnutrition is one of the top threats to child survival, yet perhaps one of the least known. Help us raise the alarm! 🚨 unicef.org/child-alert/sever…

There is simply no reason why a child should suffer from severe wasting – not when we have the ability to prevent it, for instance by using lifesaving Ready-to-use therapeutic food. Today, RUTF is manufactured in a growing number of countries including Pakistan. 🇵🇰

We have the ability to prevent children from suffering from severe wasting. We must act now, especially in South Asia where 1 in 22 children is severely wasted. Only together we can end this silent epidemic, in Pakistan 🇵🇰 and all around the world. #ForEveryChild, Nutrition

We're with @Santex_Products to break the stigma around #menstruation being taboo and raise awareness about menstrual health and hygiene (#MHH). Let's inspire young girl students to feel empowered even when on their period. #PeriodPoverty #MHDay2022 #WeAreCommitted #NoChuttiPlus
