Nutrition is a fundamental aspect of everyone’s life and development, influencing physical growth, cognitive function, and overall well-being. Access to nutritious food is vital for preventing malnutrition and supporting sustainable development efforts. In Africa, promoting good nutrition is indispensable, as up to 45% of child mortality can be attributed to malnutrition (WHO). ASKAAN embodies this belief through our work with Nutrition International and PINKK in Senegal, performing nutrition-based research, monitoring and evaluation, as well as our ongoing work with the emergency nutrition network on care pathways for child and maternal health.
