ETHIOPIA-CLIMATE-DROUGHT-HEALTH

A woman holds a malnourished child at the nutrition unit of the Kelafo Health Center in the town of Kelafo, 120 kilometers from the city of Gode, Ethiopia, on April 7, 2022. A lack of contraception and birth spacing, exclusive breastfeeding, as well as poor hygienic conditions explain the chronic undernourishment of children. The situation has been greatly aggravated by the drought and every month, the number of malnourished children increases. The worst drought to hit the Horn of Africa for 40 years is pushing 20 million people towards starvation, according to the UN, destroying an age-old way of life and leaving many children suffering from severe malnutrition as it rips families apart.
