Nutrition and Income - Youth Voice 2014

Up to 40% of children in Cambodia are malnourished, which not only impacts individual children but also has significant economic consequences for Cambodia's development. Health costs, undercapitalised work force due to child mortality, and reduced productivity all have an impact on economic growth.

In order to equip university students and youth with a better understanding about the relationship between nutrition and income, as well as its impacts on a country's productivity and economic growth, World Vision's Child Health Now campaign will run an interactive University Forum. 

The University Forum aims to engage youth and university students in this interesting topic, and challenge them to explore how they can help address malnutrition using their own skills and interests.
