The UN Children’s Agency (UNICEF) estimates nearly one million children under age 5 in South Sudan will require treatment for acute malnutrition in 2014.

This video was shot during a visit to Malakal PoC camp by UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake, together with Executive Director of the World Food Programme Ertharin Cousin.

“We have to address what is becoming a nutritional catastrophe – and it is now a nutritional disaster – for so many children," said Lake.
