Which of the following is/are the indicator/indicators used by IFPRI to compute the Global Hunger Index Report?

1. Undernourishment
2. Child stunting
3. Child mortality

Select the correct answer using the code given below.

The Global Hunger Index (GHI), computed by IFPRI, reflects the multidimensional nature of hunger using four key indicators:

1. Undernourishment: This represents the proportion of the population with insufficient caloric intake.

2. Child Wasting: This is the proportion of children under five with low weight for their height, indicating acute undernutrition.

3. Child Stunting: This is the proportion of children under five with low height for their age, indicating chronic undernutrition.

4. Child Mortality: This is the mortality rate of children under five, reflecting the combined impact of inadequate nutrition and unhealthy environments.

Therefore, all three statements are correct.

Hence, option C is the correct answer.
