WHO trains doctors to treat children with acute malnutrition

The World Health Organization (WHO), in collaboration with the Sindh Health Department and with support from the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) has trained doctors on recommended protocols for providing life-saving treatment to children suffering from severe acute malnutrition with medical complications.
The training aims to strengthen the capacity of healthcare professionals to manage complicated cases of severe acute malnutrition at WHO-supported Nutrition Stabilization Centres.
The initiative focuses on improving the quality of care and ensuring timely, appropriate treatment for vulnerable children facing life-threatening nutritional complications.
Through this collaboration, WHO, the Sindh Health Department, and BISP are working to strengthen nutrition services and improve access to essential healthcare for children in need.
