Transforming Lives: A Closer Look at the Benazir Nashonuma Program
The Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) is a top group in Pakistan that helps people in need. Now, it is starting the Benazir Nashonuma Program. By 2026, this new program hopes to help 1.7 million more women. It will focus on fixing problems like not having enough food and slow growth in children.
The Program’s Remarkable Progress
The Benazir Nashonuma Program has made great progress since it started. In the last four years, it has helped 2.3 million women by giving them important food and health check-ups. This program is focused on helping pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and young children under the age of two. It provides them with the necessary support to fight malnutrition and grow healthy.
Aiming for a Healthier Future: The 2026 Target
The World Food Programme (WFP) recently praised the success of the Benazir Nashonuma Program in a new report. Before the program started, Pakistan had a high stunting rate of 23%, the third highest in the world. However, the program has made significant progress in lowering stunting and improving health.
BISP and WFP are working together to enroll 1.7 million more women in the program over the next two years. This is important to keep fighting malnutrition and to help more families get the support they need.
