Current Challenges
- Chronic malnutrition and maternal malnutrition are affecting annually more than 0.5 Million children 6-59 months and 0.3 Million mothers respectively. This problem is very much masked by the relatively low global acute malnutrition levels in Syria.
- Funding to nutrition sector remains low at 28 percent of the annually appealed funds.
- Remote programming in cross-border areas which requires close coordination and collaboration with partners to ensure the required quality and coverage.
- Deteriorating economic situation and devaluation of the local currency as well as the ongoing COVID19 pandemic are expected to deteriorate nutrition situation of mothers and children.
- In the case UN security council resolution is not renewed beyond July 2020, delivering life-saving nutrition to more than 1 Million mothers and children will be extremely challenging.
