Nutrition Surveillance Reports Health Assessment Programme: Issue No.3, (January–December 2012)
|
Under nutrition among refugee children aged 6–59 months is a critical public health concern due to the subsequent increased morbidity and mortality in this age group and the food insecurity facing refugee populations worldwide. As part of the refugee health assessments at key locations around the world, IOM Migration Health Division teams routinely conduct anthropometric measurements on all persons examined. Using these data, IOM provides regular Nutrition Surveillance Reports that are disseminated to key partner agencies, including the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and other non-governmental organizations (NGOs).
