Nutrition programming supports nutritional health for children and caregivers and promotes appropriate infant and young child feeding. It typically includes screening for acute malnutrition, referrals, community engagement, and behavior-change communication on IYCF and complementary feeding. Where services exist, MHA facilitates referrals and follow-up. Activities are coordinated with health, WASH, and protection, with particular attention to children under five and pregnant or breastfeeding women.
