Child wasting will soon be fully treatable at home. Imagine what it took to get it there and the heroes behind such effort, too numerous to name. Thank you. Seeing that journey up close has been one of the biggest privileges of my life.

What is child wasting?

[Decolonise MSF @DecoloniseMsf]

"By depicting ‘starving children’ in humanitarian appeals, orgs give donors a sense of superiority over people they ‘save’. They invite the white West to be ‘parents’ to “childlike” people in need, reinforcing colonial hierarchies and stereotypes"- @Emily_Baughan @africasacountry

As families do everything they can to protect their children from hunger and malnutrition amidst COVID-19, conflict and climate change, they need help.
