📋 Tender Overview
United Nations Decade on Nutrition
France and Brazil greet the adoption with more than 100 Copatrocians, by the United Nations General Assembly, from a resolution that extends until 2030 to the United Nations Action on Nutrition. This joint initiative resolution reinforces the political impetus at all levels to eradicate all forms of poor nutrition, in line with the sustainable development objectives of the United Nations Agenda 2030.
On March 27 and 28, France will host the Nutrition for Growth summit, which promotes a cross approach to development in the health, agriculture, water, hygiene and sanitation sectors. Mal nutrition is a scourge that affects all countries in the world, with serious consequences that affect human capital and the development potential of nations: 45 million children suffer from acute bad nutrition and 150 million face poor chronic nutrition. Overweight, obesity and malnutrition of older people are expanding phenomena.
France and Brazil reaffirm their commitment to food and nutritional security through concrete initiatives, such as the coalition for school feeding, the global alliance against hunger and poverty, and the dynamics generated by the nutrition summit for growth, aimed at identifying new sources of financing and mobilizing the international community.
