Harare, Zimbabwe — The United Nations children's fund says there is a"dire situation" in several eastern and southern African countries, where at least 45 million children are dealing with severe food insecurity made worse by climate change.
"For example, in Malawi, affected by the current El Nino phenomenon, data from the routine nutrition program showed a worsening of the nutrition status of children and increased admissions for acute malnutrition," Rudert said."Almost half of the 21 countries are at the very highest risk of climate change impacts for children in this region. Even small gains in nutrition are now being reversed before our eyes.
"Let me mention Zimbabwe, where we are working with the government on the clean green schools initiative," Taulo added,"where all aspects of climate change strategies are actually integrated into how we are delivering education from the school to the community and creating an ecosystem that is going to be able to address the effects of climate change."There was a problem processing your submission.
