For every child, a better world!
Malnutrition remains a public health and development problem in Haiti as indicated by the preliminary results of the latest Mortality, Morbidity and Use of Services Survey (EMMUS-VI) conducted in 2016-2017. Iron deficiency anemia is the most worrying problem with a national prevalence of 66% in children under 5 and 48% in women of childbearing age. These levels have hardly changed since the early 2000s. The prevalence of stunting has stagnated at 22% since 2012, with one in five children having a height deficit relative to age. The prevalence of acute malnutrition, estimated at 3.7%, fluctuates greatly depending on seasonality and climatic aleas that can reach levels above 10% during humanitarian crises. These statistics show insufficient progress in achieving sustainable development goals, including the WHO global targets for reducing iron deficiency anemia (by 50%) and stunting (by 40%) by 2025. Malnutrition is not only limited to undernutrition but also includes over-nutrition and its consequential overweight and obesity, which have serious consequences for longevity and quality of life. The prevalence of overweight / obesity of 25% among women of childbearing age is twice as high as the chronic energy deficit of 13%.
The country has a National Nutrition Policy (2012) and has just finalized the National Policy Paper on Sovereignty and Food Security and Nutrition (PNSSANH-June 2018).These two documents give the priorities and the main orientations of the country to fight against all forms of malnutrition. On the other hand, in 2014, the country adopted a five-year national strategic plan for nutrition that will come to an end at the end of 2018.
It is in this context that the Ministry of Public Health and Population (MSPP) proposes, with the technical and financial support of Unicef, to update the strategic plan for nutrition in order to identify better adapted and efficient for the next 5 years in the light of the current situation, evidence and good practices in nutrition.
