Summary[edit]
| Summary | |
|---|---|
| Description | This photograph showed two malnourished Nigerian children that were being cared for in a refugee relief camp in the late 1960s during the Nigerian-Biafran civil war. The CDC helped to treat the 500,000 cases of malnutrition by setting up food distribution centers and clinics in refugee relief camps surrounding the Nigerian war zone. Protein enriched foods, such as dried codfish and powdered milk, were made available to the children suffering with the protein-calorie malnutrition disease called kwashiorkor. |
