À propos de cet événement
While it is estimated that every dollar invested in nutrition generates $23 in total income benefits, policymakers face complex decision-making processes when investing in nutrition. Nutrition outcomes are a multifaceted, spanning multiple sectors and encompassing various pathways that contribute to health and welfare. Addressing malnutrition requires tackling multiple issues (including undernutrition, micronutrient deficiencies, obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases) while also considering a wide range of interconnected factors, such as sanitation, food systems, women’s roles, child care, or health system capacity.
Scientific research plays a crucial role in informing public policy and will be at the heart of discussions at the Paris N4G Summit. The scientific conference on March 26 aims to share the latest research findings on key topics for improving nutrition with policymakers.
Programme of the morning sessions:
AFD and its research partners, Cirad, INRAE, and IRD, invite you to share and discuss the latest research findings on four complementary and major topics for improving nutrition.
