Summary

Description

Eveline Erupe, 22, with her two daughters who are four and 10 months.

Eveline has brought them to Lodwar District Hospital to the outpatient unit. Here her baby receives a ration of 'plumpy nut', a high-nutrition, peanut-based food supplement.

Levels of acute malnutrition in Turkana county have soared this year due to the unstable food situation and the drought. In July 2011, admissions to hospital for children with severe acute malnutrition were four times the rate of the previous January.

The outpatient unit provides food rations in the form of plumpy nut, made possible through donations from the international community including the UK. The UK is supporting UNICEF to address the problem of malnutrition in the area.
