Child Wasting Innovation Programme The programme will strengthen the resilience of services to treat and prevent child wasting in the face of climate change.  The objective is to. 1. Reduce mortality associated with child wasting  2. Help reduce the prevalence of child wasting in target countries  3. Avoid permanent damage to the growth and development of young children that results in them doing less well at school, less economically productive as adults and less resilient to the effects of climate change   This will be achieved by. 1. Integrating treatment for child wasting into health systems 2. Optimising treatment services to reduce cost, improve coverage and enable services to be scaled up to deal with climate shocks and other crises effectively 3. Generating evidence of what works to prevent wasting in the face of climate change
