IPC EVENTS

The training on the IPC Acute Malnutrition classification aims to prepare countries conducting analyses of malnutrition caused by non-food related factors, such as inadequate caring practices and disease-related causal factors, as well as food related factors. In addition, it equips the participants with a full understanding of both underlying and direct factors that affect nutritional vulnerability. The IPC Acute Malnutrition Analysis Workshop examines the situation in two ways: in terms of inadequate quality and/or quantity of consumption of food, which can lead to malnutrition; and an input to food security.
