Question

During a nutrition survey, a nurse identifies widespread vitamin A deficiency among preschoolers. Which international organization would most likely support a large-scale supplementation campaign?

The correct answer is

United Nations Children's Fund

UNICEF (United Nations Children’s Fund) works for the survival, health and nutrition of children and mothers.

It procures and supplies vitamin A capsules and supports large-scale vitamin A supplementation for children aged 6–59 months in countries such as India.

FAO deals with food and agriculture, the Red Cross with relief work, and WHO sets technical guidelines, but UNICEF leads the supply and support for mass supplementation campaigns among preschool children.

Hence, United Nations Children's Fund.
