Situation:
Little Steps – Big Help. Tackling Malaria and Malnutrition among Infants and Mothers
Situation:
Nigeria accounts for a quarter of all malaria cases worldwide. In addition, around 2 million children and seven percent of women of childbearing age suffer from acute malnutrition. Treatment is inadequate, which leads to a high mortality rate. There is also a lack of education and knowledge about the consequences, prevention and the interaction of malaria and malnutrition.
Objectives:
Reducing cases of malaria and malnutrition in children under five and pregnant women
Medical Care for Drug Users, their Families, and Communities in Punjab
Situation:
27 million people live in the poverty-stricken state of Punjab. Due to a lack of perspective and awareness, and inadequate health care infrastructure, many young people succumb to addiction or are at risk of becoming addicted. Their addiction becomes an additional financial liability for their families, who often already live in poverty and lack the means to take care of their own health.
