A Common Tool Used to Determine If a Child is Malnourished
A MUAC or “Mid-Upper Arm Circumference” tape is one common tool that we use to determine if a child is malnourished.
As the world’s hunger specialist, we are working in remote areas to provide children assistance that are focused on their nutrition and health. But aside from this, we also enlighten their families on their roles in ensuring the health of their children, and educating them on the many external factors that can cause malnutrition.
Together, we can reach more families with our nutrition and health programs.
