Will new global goals alleviate child nutrition problems?

NAIROBI: As Kenya works to have children breastfed exclusively for six months, Baringo County has only 47 per cent of mothers exclusively breastfeeding according to a research done in November 2013 and released last year by World Vision Kenya in collaboration with the Ministry of Health with support from UNICEF.

This is a reality that comes at a time when the world is gearing for new goals that will determine how the world tackles issues over the next 15 years after the expiry of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
