Abstract

Resumen: Este documento presenta la situación de morbilidad y mortalidad por desnutrición infantil en los ámbitos mundiales, nacional y en especial en el departamento de La Guajira. A partir del reconocimiento de la desnutrición como un resultado multifactorial, el Ministerio de Salud y Protección Social expone el marco de referencia adoptado para comprender y atender, desde sus competencias, la desnutrición infantil como un problema de salud pública en Colombia. Aún cuando los programas e intervenciones realizadas desde el sector salud son importantes, se enfatiza en la necesidad de la acción intersectorial coordinada para lograr disminuir las cifras de morbilidad y mortalidad relacionadas con la desnutrición infantil en el país.
