Climate change threatens the availability of healthy food in many communities around the world. Scaling up proven nutrition solutions like multiple micronutrient supplements (#MMS) is key to helping more mothers and children access the nutrition they need for their health and development. Thanks, Shawn Baker and Philomena Orji for calling attention to the climate and nutrition crisis and what we can do to tackle it!
In a new opinion piece for Devex, Chief Program Officer Shawn Baker and Transforming Lives Through Nutrition Program Director Philomena Orji write about the most relentless consequence of climate change – malnutrition – and what the international community can do to address it. 🤝 They note high-level academic and political discussions about climate change are often disconnected from the experiences of people living through the impacts. They advocate for urgent investments in proven solutions that will help ensure children and families can access nutritious foods and life-saving nutrition services, even in the most challenging environments. 🍠 "This is how we build the resilience communities need to survive, thrive, and transform their lives in the face of growing climate challenges. Our planet is changing—our children and their families cannot wait." 💜🤍 Read more:
