Across the five countries, World Vision is working to ensure mothers and their children get proper nutrition in the first 1000 days of their lives, from conception to their second birthday. Although these five countries contain just 6.8 per cent of the world’s population, they are home to 13 per cent of the world’s children under age 5 who suffer from stunting, caused by lack of nutrition (State of the World’s Children (SOWC) 2014).
The overall goal of this program is to reduce deaths of mothers and children in the targeted regions of the five countries. Most deaths in the critical first 1,000 days could be prevented through relatively simple and cost effective solutions like regular prenatal check-ups, clean birthing kits, exclusive breastfeeding, monitoring baby’s growth, and immunization. ENRICH addresses stunting, wasting and anemia in its programming.
