Within weeks children can make a full recovery. Meeting the nutritional needs of thousands of children means that not only are lives being saved today but entire communities are strengthened to be more healthy and productive for now and the future. A brighter future cannot be achieved if the 60 million children in our world, currently suffering from forms of acute malnutrition, are not reached in greater numbers.

Every 10 seconds, somewhere in the world, a child dies from malnutrition. We heard gunshots and saw our neighbours ambushed. We ran from our home and decided to come here for safety.
Conflict has displaced 1. The biggest challenge is the lack of food. My child has been ill for the last two weeks. She has diarrhoea and has been vomiting. I thought she might die. I thought death would take her. Like so many other children in South Sudan, Nyakuma was suffering from severe malnutrition and dehydration.
She was so weakened from chronic diarrhoea and vomiting, that her life was literally draining from her. Concern has been responding to food crises for over 45 years and has pioneered an approach that allows malnourished children be treated away from the clinic, using sachets of an amazing, ready-to-eat, emergency food called Plumpy Nut. Previously, the prevailing approach involved in-patient feeding centres where children were given milk feeds and medical treatment round-the-clock.
The problem with this was that the need for hour medical staffing meant that there were fewer centres in which fewer children could be treated. Overcrowding was also often a problem, causing cross-infection among children.
