 INTRODUCTION

The present research project refers to child malnutrition, this topic is of the utmost importance
since it refers to the fact that child malnutrition is due to poor nutrition or deficiency of necessary
nutrients such as vitamins and minerals for optimal development of the body, of the brain and
intellectual capacity, this deficiency may have started in the mother's womb.
 ISSUE
Child malnutrition appears due to insufficient food consumption and the
repeated appearance of infectious diseases. The first year of a child's life is
essential for their growth, both for their physical and psychological
development, which is why nutrition is so important at this stage of life,
although it continues to be so at all.
 The cause of child malnutrition can be
divided into two groups:
• Immediate causes: these are the causes that are most
closely related to an inadequate diet. In other
words, there is insufficient food consumption (in
quality and quantity) and it can lead to infectious
diseases such as diarrhoea, which worsens the
situation.

Our objective and urgency to make known are for

the following reasons:
Our objective is to create a campaign on malnutrition in
infants in which a pediatrician or a nutritionist
specialized in nutrition reviews them.
 SOLUTION

Our solution for malnutrition in infants is

that with the campaign that will be carried
out, give talks to mothers and tell them that
in the newborn it is essential to consume
milk, if it is maternal better, so that it is
nourished by the foods that will allow it to
develop.
 MONEY
The problem of malnutrition is high, so we
will not be able to get an exact investment
figure.
We must emphasize that, in order to feed our
children well, we must have money, since we
know that certain foods that are good for
them are expensive, we have the idea of ​an
organization where we will collect money to
be able to help malnourished children who is
in a critical financial situation.
 CONCLUSI
ON
To end this very important topic, we are going to highlight that our two
most significant points are the talks on how to prevent or help children with
malnutrition and the collection of money to donate food to people with
limited resources.
