You're watching UNICEF Television. 00:00:00
A baby suffering from severe malnutrition. 00:00:04
Two years after Niger's severe food and nutrition crisis, 00:00:08
the sight of undernourished children may be less common here. 00:00:12
Nonetheless, chronic malnutrition still affects nearly half of the country's young children, 00:00:16
in part because of annual food shortages. 00:00:22
At this UNICEF-supported health centre, severely malnourished children are fed 00:00:26
with an easy-to-use therapeutic food called Plumpy Nut. 00:00:31
Plumpy Nut is, they call it a magical product. 00:00:35
It can recover children very quickly when they become malnourished. 00:00:39
And here in the Sahel region, in Niger, which are amongst the poorest countries in the world, 00:00:43
children can become malnourished very quickly. 00:00:49
This factory near Niamey is the only one in West Africa to produce the high-protein, 00:00:52
high-energy peanut-based food, up to 40 tonnes a month. 00:00:57
Thanks to the financial support of ECHO, the European Commission's humanitarian office, 00:01:03
last year UNICEF purchased about 130 tonnes of the Plumpy Nut produced here. 00:01:08
Plumpy Nut helped treat more than 63,000 severely malnourished children last year. 00:01:15
The vitamin-rich food can reach many children, 00:01:22
since it can be taken home as well as given in feeding centres. 00:01:25
Plumpy Nut is really very effective and useful for the treatment of severely malnourished children 00:01:30
who are not necessarily in health clinics, and therefore we can reach many children at once. 00:01:37
As Niger looks towards a long-term solution to the malnutrition crisis, 00:01:43
today Plumpy Nut is saving children's lives. 00:01:48
In Niamey, Niger, this is Sabine Dolan reporting for UNICEF Television. 00:01:53
Unite for Children. 00:01:58
