Illustration of Child Malnutrition - Educational Health Resource #3654872 (License: Personal Use)

The image shows a young Black boy with curly black hair, wide eyes, and a deeply concerned expression. His torso is severely underweight with visible ribs and a distended abdomen-a classic sign of protein-energy malnutrition (kwashiorkor). He wears simple dark shorts and stands barefoot, emphasizing vulnerability and socioeconomic hardship.

Used in public health campaigns, NGO reports, medical education, and humanitarian websites to illustrate child malnutrition, food insecurity, and the need for nutritional intervention programs.
