Fig. 1 — Wasting and overweight/obesity prevalence of Syrian refugee children by country, 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2016

The figure shows the prevalence (%) of wasting (zWFH<− 2), normal weight (zWFH≥ − 2 & zWFH≤2), and overweight and obesity (zWFH> 2) of Syrian refugee children aged 6 to 59 months assessed by IOM. Calculation of prevalence was done by using the number of children that falls under each category of the weight for height Z-score as numerator and the total number of children assessed by country of health assessment as denominator.
