<p>A 2012 nutrition survey of mothers and children under 5 conducted by Democratic
People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) authorities (with support from the Word Food Programme
(WFP), UNICEF and the World Health Organisation) showed that average nutrition levels
were improved from a 2009 survey, but that in some provinces stunting rates remained
above acceptable levels. A joint Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) and (WFP)
Crop and Food Security Assessment in 2013 estimated an improved aggregate food security
situation for the marketing year 2013/14, but noted that the household food security
levels and lack of diet diversity continued to pose a threat to the most vulnerable
children, elderly, sick and pregnant and breastfeeding women.</p><p> </p>
