Book Description
UNICEF-WHO-WB Joint Child Malnutrition Estimates (JME) inter-agency group updates regularly the global and regional estimates in prevalence and numbers for each indicator. The JME estimates are used for monitoring of the 2025 nutrition targets endorsed by the World Health Assembly in 2012, and their extension to 2030 proposed by WHO and UNICEF for the monitoring of the SDG 2.2 targets 2.2.1 (stunting), and 2.2.2 (wasting and overweight). The goal of the annual key findings is to inform monitoring efforts towards the nutrition targets set by countries, as well as other key data stakeholders, such as health-related institutions, academia, civil societies and donors.
