The World Bank Group organizes a webinar on “Nutrition Smart Agriculture – When Good Nutrition is Good Business, Country Profiles”  on Thursday June 11, from 08:00 – 09:00 AM Washington DC time, 14:00-15:00 PM NL time. 

The event will present the concept of Nutrition Smart Agriculture (NSmartAg) and its potential to guide supply-side decisions to make available diversified, safe and nutritient-rich foods. Nutrition-smart investments in agriculture are those that achieve the double objective of contributing to improving nutrition while increasing farm and/or agribusiness-level productivity or revenue – the drivers for agribusiness investment.

The event will also showcase NSmartAg Country Profiles that aim to provide a developing snapshot of country-specific agricultural and nutritional challenges, while advancing recommendations  on entry points for investment and what type of Nutrition Smart Agriculture interventions could be developed. The case of the Democratic Republic of Congo will be presented.
