BOOK NOWRoad to Resilience (#R2R)
#N4R represents a critical stepping-stone to the Nutrition for Growth (N4G) Summit as leaders, experts, policymakers, program implementors, and advocates from across national governments, bilateral donors, multilateral organizations, academia, civil society, and responsible businesses join forces, build momentum, and align on a way forward that will shape N4G’s policy agenda.
As momentum and interest rise among leading nutrition partners, the Road to Resilience (R2R) Advocacy Agenda will bridge forthcoming global events along a collective agenda can be launched at #N4R and continue across other key moments, including COP, to the #N4G Summit in Paris.
Highlights From the Program:
This session will focus on the importance of data on population MN status for policy and program development; the role of MN status biomarkers in assessing population status and their biological basis; and review information on the prevalence of selected MN deficiencies and factors influencing these estimates.[/tm_carousel_son][tm_carousel_son img_radius=”50px” titlesize=”18″ fontweight=”bold” line_height=”2″ line_visibility=”show” line_width=”300″ line_style=”2px solid #fff” content_padding=”20″ title=”WHAT IS NEEDED TO SUPPORT, SCALE AND SUSTAIN MICRONUTRIENT NUTRITION SOLUTIONS?” image_id=”12461″ img_width=”100px” img_height=”100px” contain_url=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fmnforum2023.org%2Fprogram-overview%2F|target:_blank”] 19 October 05:30 PM
