Malnutrition can turn a prison sentence into a death sentence

 

Malnutrition can turn a prison sentence into a death sentence. Almost half of all prisoners in Madagascar suffer from moderate or severe malnutrition. In 2015, more than 9,000 inmates were identified as malnourished and treated as part of an International Committee of the Red Cross emergency food programme aiming to get these vulnerable people back on their feet and prevent malnutrition-related deaths. ----- The ICRC is on the ground in over 90 countries, providing humanitarian aid to victims of conflict and violence.
