Doble carga nutricional. Nuevas realidades para la Ayuda Humanitaria en nutrición

Abstract

La doble carga nutricional, coexistencia de desnutrición y sobrepeso, obesidad o enfermedades crónicas no transmisibles relacionadas con la dieta es un fenómeno complejo, íntimamente vinculado a la transición nutricional, tanto en entornos alimentariamente inseguros de países desarrollados como, especialmente, en países en vías de desarrollo. Constituye a día de hoy un desafío para los sistemas de salud mundiales y ha sido priorizado incluso por la Organización Mundial de la Salud a través de las llamadas double-duty actions o acciones de doble propósito. Es una obviedad que las organizaciones internacionales de salud deben estar implicadas en la lucha contra este fenómeno, pero, dado el contexto en el que prevalece la doble carga nutricional, las organizaciones del Tercer Sector suponen asimismo un pilar fundamental en dicha lucha. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo realizar una revisión panorámica sobre las acciones emprendidas a nivel mundial para atajar la doble carga nutricional, poniendo el foco en el papel de organizaciones no gubernamentales y otros componentes del Tercer Sector. La revisión bibliográfica arrojó diez resultados centrados específicamente en la doble carga nutricional y en acciones de mejora para combatirla, pero pone de manifiesto la escasez de estudios enfocados a atajarla, y, particularmente, la ausencia de medidas específicas por parte del Tercer Sector, a pesar del interés creciente que suscita a nivel mundial esta problemática nutricional.

The double burden of malnutrition, coexistence of undernutrition and overweight, obesity or diet-related chronic diseases, is a complex phenomenon, closely linked to the nutritional transition, both in food insecure environments in developed countries and, especially, in developing countries. It currently constitutes a challenge for global health systems and has even been prioritized by the World Health Organization through the so-called double-duty actions or dual-purpose actions. It is an obvious statement that international health organizations must be involved in the fight against this phenomenon, but, given the context in which the double burden of malnutrition prevails, Third Sector’s organizations are also a fundamental pillar in that fight. The aim of this work is to carry out a scoping review regarding the actions undertaken worldwide to tackle the double burden of malnutrition, focusing on the role of nongovernmental organizations and other components of the Third Sector. The scoping review returned ten results specifically focused on double burden of malnutrition and improvement actions to fight against it, but it reveals the scarcity of studies focused on that purpose and, particularly, the absence of specific interventions developed by the Third Sector, despite the growing interest that this nutritional problem arouses worldwide.
