UNICEF The state of the world's children 2019: children, food and nutrition - growing well in a changing world
This report examines nutrition, providing a fresh perspective on a rapidly evolving challenge. Despite progress in the past two decades, around 200 million under-fives suffer from undernutrition. Adding to this toll is rising obesity, which affects 38 million children. All these forms of malnutrition threaten children's development, while obesity is creating a lifelong legacy of disease. At the heart of this evolving challenge is a global shift towards modern diets that do not meet children's nutritional requirements. The report provides unique data and analysis of malnutrition in the 21st century and outlines recommendations to put children's needs at the heart of global and national food systems.

UNICEF The state of the world's children 2021: on my mind, promoting, protecting and caring for children's mental health
The COVID-19 pandemic has raised huge concerns for the mental health of an entire generation of children. But the pandemic may represent only the tip of a mental health iceberg, an iceberg we have ignored for far too long. For the first time, The State of the World's Children 2021 examines the mental health of children and adolescents. Against a backdrop of rising awareness of mental health issues, there is now a unique opportunity to promote good mental health for every child, protect vulnerable children, and care for children facing the greatest challenges. Making that happen will require urgent investment in child and adolescent mental health across sectors - not just in health, to support proven interventions. It will also need societies to break the silence surrounding mental health, by addressing stigma, promoting understanding, and taking seriously the experiences of children and young people
