Target 2.2 of the Sustainable Development Goals focuses on ending all forms of malnutrition by 2025, with particular attention to the nutritional needs of children under five years of age, pregnant and lactating women, and vulnerable populations. Malnutrition is a major barrier to sustainable development because it not only affects individual health and well-being but also hinders economic growth, educational outcomes, and social equity. Addressing malnutrition is complex due to the multifaceted factors that contribute to it, including poverty, inadequate access to diverse and nutritious foods, poor maternal and child care practices, lack of clean water and sanitation, and limited access to health services. Despite global efforts, malnutrition remains prevalent in many low- and middle-income countries, reflecting deep-seated structural inequalities and systemic challenges in food production, distribution, and healthcare. Malnutrition manifests in multiple forms, each with distinct physiological and societal implications. Stunting, wasting, and hidden hunger are three primary manifestations that have unique causes, consequences, and interventions. Stunting refers to a condition where children have low height for their age, indicating chronic undernutrition. It usually results from prolonged inadequate intake of essential nutrients combined with repeated infections during early childhood. Stunting has long-term effects on cognitive development, school performance, and adult productivity, and it is difficult to reverse after the first two years of life. It reflects persistent deficiencies in diet quality, household food security, and overall living conditions, and is often linked with poverty, limited access to healthcare, and maternal malnutrition. ___ __________ ________ ______ _________ ______ _________.
