Hian and her daughter Nana visited the clinic in Sanamxai, Sanamxai district, Attapeu province, Lao PDR. where Nana was diagnosed with moderate acute malnutrition.

Nutrition is a lifelong issue. The effects of poor nutrition begin in the womb, continue well into adulthood, and cycle across generations. While malnutrition can trap generations of children in a cycle of poverty, good nutrition, particularly in infancy, is the building block for future health and development.
