CIRAD/AFD – Transforming food systems for better nutrition

To address the triple whammy of malnutrition — undernutrition, micronutrient deficiencies, and excess weight/obesity — in tropical and Mediterranean countries, CIRAD and AFD are calling for nutrition issues to be integrated into every component of food systems. In this joint position paper, they reaffirm the potential of food systems to improve health, make territories more resilient and support sustainable, fair and inclusive development.
