粮农组织、难民署、儿基会、世界粮食计划署和世卫组织五个联合国机构联合发出紧急呼吁，要求采取行动应对影响15个国家的严重营养不良危机。1目前超过3000万儿童患有急性营养不良（消瘦），其中800万儿童处于严重消瘦状态，这是最致命的营养不足形式。1严重消瘦儿童的死亡风险是营养良好儿童的12倍。1
受灾最严重的15个国家包括：阿富汗、布基纳法索、乍得、刚果民主共和国、埃塞俄比亚、海地、肯尼亚、马达加斯加、马里、尼日尔、尼日利亚、索马里、南苏丹、苏丹和也门。1这些国家面临的营养危机主要由冲突、气候冲击、COVID-19持续影响和生活成本上升共同驱动。1联合国机构呼吁加快推进全球儿童消瘦行动计划，通过多部门协调方式在受影响国家预防、检测和治疗急性营养不良。1
Five United Nations agencies have issued an emergency appeal for coordinated action to combat a severe malnutrition crisis affecting 15 countries worldwide.1 More than 30 million children are suffering from acute malnutrition, commonly known as wasting, with 8 million of them experiencing severe wasting—the most life-threatening form of malnutrition.1 Children with severe wasting face a mortality risk 12 times higher than well-nourished children.1
The affected countries span multiple regions, including Afghanistan, Burkina Faso, Chad, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Haiti, Kenya, Madagascar, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, and Yemen.1 The crisis stems from multiple interconnected factors: ongoing conflicts, climate-related shocks, prolonged impacts of COVID-19, and rising living costs.1 The five UN agencies involved—the Food and Agriculture Organization, UN Refugee Agency, UNICEF, World Food Programme, and World Health Organization—are calling for accelerated implementation of a global action plan for child wasting.1 This multisectoral approach aims to prevent, detect, and treat acute malnutrition in countries experiencing conflict and natural disasters.1
