Question

Which of the following is not a component indicator of measuring Global Hunger Index (GHI) Score?

A.

Child stunting

B.

Under-nourishment

C.

Child wasting

D.

Infant mortality rate

Correct option is D

The Global Hunger Index (GHI) is a tool designed to measure and track hunger at global, national, and regional levels. The GHI score is calculated based on four key indicators:
Undernourishment: The proportion of the population with insufficient caloric intake.
Child stunting: The proportion of children under the age of five who have low height for their age, reflecting chronic undernutrition.
Child wasting: The proportion of children under the age of five who have low weight for their height, reflecting acute undernutrition.
Child mortality: The proportion of children who die before reaching the age of five, often linked to inadequate nutrition and unhealthy living conditions.
Infant mortality rate is not used as a direct component of the GHI. While child mortality is part of the index, infant mortality (deaths within the first year) is more specific and is usually considered in other health indices, not in the calculation of the Global Hunger Index.
