Karnali Drought Response Standard Project Report 2016 - World Food Programme in Nepal, State of (NP)
Abstract:
Geography plays a critical role in determining the degree of food insecurity in Nepal.Nepal was ranked as ‘serious' on the 2015 Global Hunger Index. The remote and mountainous Mugu and Jumla districts of Karnali are particularly vulnerable, with limited transport and market facilities. The Karnali region of far-western Nepal has always had high levels of food insecurity.WFP has implemented a stunting prevention programme to support the Government of Nepal's efforts to address the high prevalence of chronic undernutrition among children aged 6-23 months and pregnant and lactating women in Mugu and Jumla.The programme entailed the provision of a nutritious ration of 100 g of Super Cereal per person per day to pregnant and lactating women and children aged 6-23 months and 24-59 months. women#children#food#distribution#Karnali#Mugu#2016
