The IPC Acute Malnutrition analysis carried out on 43 analysis units, including 15 provinces, 27 departments and the city of N'Djaména, shows that almost 1,746,000 children aged between 6 and 59 months will suffer from acute malnutrition over the period from October 2023 to September 2024, i.e. 5 percent fewer than over the same period last year (just under 1,775,500 children identified as suffering from acute malnutrition over this period). The number of cases of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) expected between October 2023 and September 2024 is almost 480,000 children (compared with 415,000 last year between October 2022 and September 2023, i.e. around 15 percent more). For pregnant and breast-feeding women suffering from acute malnutrition, the estimate is over 261,000 (down from 273,500 last year, a variation of 5 percent).
