Adolescent girls face a widespread and invisible threat. One that puts their ability to learn, grow and thrive at risk. And it’s one of the greatest prevailing symptoms of gender inequality around the world: Malnutrition.
In June 2018, Girl Effect and Nutrition International, the global nutrition organisation, announced a two-year partnership to tackle malnutrition in teenage girls living in Indonesia.
Together, our aim is to put better nutrition on the menu for adolescent girls around the world. We’re starting in Indonesia which has some of the most worrying global statistics on nutrition.
The partnership will improve millions of Indonesian girls’ knowledge of nutrition and empower them to lead healthier, happier lives.
