Which of the following institutions publishes the 'Global Hunger Index' (GHI), where India's rankings frequently attract policy discussions regarding malnutrition?

A. Concern Worldwide and Welthungerhilfe✓ Correct Answer
B. World Health Organization (WHO) and UNICEF
C. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and World Bank
D. International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) alone

💡 Solution & Explanation

The Global Hunger Index is jointly published annually by the international civil society organizations Concern Worldwide and Welthungerhilfe. Distractors naming the World Bank or the International Food Policy Research Institute confuse it with other global socio-economic indices. The index evaluates countries based on undernourishment, child wasting, child stunting, and child mortality.
