Undernutrition imposes a staggering cost
worldwide, both in human and economic terms. It is
responsible for the deaths of more than 3.5 million children
each year (more than one-third of all deaths among children
under five) and the loss of billions of dollars in forgone
productivity and avoidable health care spending. Individuals
lose more than 10 percent of lifetime earnings, and many
countries lose at least 2-3 percent of their gross domestic
product to undernutrition. The current economic crisis and
its potential impact on the poor make investing in child
nutrition more urgent than ever to protect and strengthen
human capital in the most vulnerable developing countries.
This report offers suggestions on how to raise these
resources. It is an investment we must make. It will yield
high returns in the form of thriving children, healthier
families, and more productive workers. This investment is
essential to make progress on the nutrition and child
mortality Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and to protect
critical human capital in developing economies. The human
and financial costs of further neglect will be high. This
call for greater investment in nutrition comes at a time
when global efforts to strengthen health systems provide a
unique opportunity to scale up integrated packages of health
and nutrition interventions, with common delivery platforms,
and lower costs. The report has benefited from the expertise
of many international agencies, nongovernmental
organizations, and research institutions. The cooperation of
so many practitioners is evidence of a growing recognition
of the need to invest in nutrition interventions, and a
growing consensus about how to deliver effective programs. |
