Malnutrition data

May 2023

UNICEF, WHO & World Bank’s Joint global database on child malnutrition provides country-level trends of 4 core child malnutrition indicators. All publicly available MICS and DHS with anthropometric data for the full age range of 0 to 59 months have been reanalyzed to produce standardized estimates over time. Along with national estimates, the databases contain estimates by various disaggregations such as place of residence, geographic location, age and sex.
