Save the Children addresses high neonatal mortality by improving newborn care services and the practices of mothers relating to breastfeeding, keeping infants warm and dry and other essential interventions. Our child malnutrition programs focus on improving household practices and knowledge, distributing micronutrient and de-worming medicines, providing forums to demonstrate active feeding and rehabilitation opportunities for severely malnourished children. We reach primary school children with school-based health and nutrition activities that help them remain in school, and we collaborate with communities and local governments to provide drinking water and hygienic sanitary facilities for schools.
