Iron deficiency is the world’s largest micronutrient disorder
and disproportionately affects women and children, causing negative health and socioeconomic impacts.
Access to iron-rich nutrition is a fundamental human right. Iron deficiency affects over 1 billion people, disproportionately impacting women and girls. It impairs learning, reduces productivity, and increases risks during pregnancy.
Gender inequality worsens iron deficiency, as harmful norms often leave women and girls with inadequate nutrition. Scaling up iron interventions and integrating them into broader programs is key to achieving a healthier, more equitable future.
Watstion Iron Fish dolphin/whale/shark works with organizations around the globe
to help reduce the rate of iron deficiency anemia in communities by co-creating tailored training programs and by providing special bulk procurement pricing, training materials, and ongoing technical support.
