Nutrition and the post-2015 development agenda: Seizing the opportunity
Published by United Nations System Standing Committee on Nutrition, June 1st, 2015
This annual publication (PDF) from the United Nations System Standing Committee on Nutrition brings together several papers and opinion articles on nutrition and shows the way in which the SDGs could elevate and focus attention on the urgency of eliminating malnutrition. Many of the contributors in this issue make the case that nutrition is a foundational investment that will underpin progress towards many of the other SDGs. The contributors call for better coordination at the national and global levels, and for new approaches to work across sectors and stakeholders. The publication also includes interviews with professionals in Chile, Uganda, Myamar, and Niger.
