The CGIAR Research Program on Agriculture for Nutrition and Health (A4NH) is dedicated to the realization of Sustainable Development Goals 2 and 3, as coordinated by the United Nations and agreed to by member countries.
The overall goal of the three-year CAN program (2016–2019) was “Reducing malnutrition among children and women by facilitating efficient implementation of food and nutrition programmes, ensuring transparency, downward accountability and community
IFPRI’s mission is to provide research-based policy solutions to sustainably reduce poverty and end hunger and malnutrition. Recent publications and websites examine the critical links between agriculture, nutrition, and health.
Les transformations fondamentales dans notre système alimentaire mondial, en partie précipitées par une urbanisation rapide, menacent l’accès des pauvres des zones urbaines à une alimentation saine et aggravent la malnutrition sous toutes ses form
Through this program, IFPRI will provide evidence-based policy assessments to make agri-food industries and food systems more inclusive in terms of employment and income opportunities, more efficient in meeting the food needs of the growing global
Major shifts in our global food system, driven in part by rapid urbanization, threaten the urban poor's access to healthy diets and exacerbate malnutrition in all its forms.
This Plan of Work and Budget (POWB) for 2018 includes chapters on the following: 1) expected key results, 2) planning for platform effectiveness and efficiency, and 3) platform management.
Agriculture is closely linked to both the direct causes of undernutrition (e.g. diets, feeding practices, and health) and the underlying factors (e.g. income, education, access to water, sanitation, hygiene and health services, and equity).
A4NH flagship 3: Food safety
Food safety is moving rapidly up the development agenda as major new studies reveal its severely under-estimated importance.
Governments, businesses, and civil society groups increasingly realize the important need of supporting food systems to produce and supply diverse, nutritious, and safe foods for healthy lives.
Agriculture enhances access to food and improves livelihoods, but in some cases, may also be linked with increased risks of disease transmission.
Micronutrient deficiency affects approximately 2 billion people globally and is caused by poor-quality diets resulting in low intakes of key micronutrients.
Our research aims to improve nutrition by understanding and addressing both the direct determinants of malnutrition (such as diets, caregiving and feeding practices, and health) and the underlying contributors (such as income, food security, educa
For more than two decades, IFPRI’s research and policy analysis have been a resource for Bangladesh in making impressive strides in ensuring food security and reducing poverty.
