About Global Hunger Index

• The Global Hunger Index (GHI) is a tool designed to measure and track hunger globally, focusing on its dimensions and causes.

• GHI score is calculated based on four indicators:
  • Undernourishment: The proportion of the population that is undernourished.
  • Child Wasting: The percentage of children under 5 who have low weight for their height (indicative of acute malnutrition).
  • Child Stunting: The percentage of children under 5 who have low height for their age (indicative of chronic malnutrition).
