Abstract

This policy brief, titled "India-Africa in G21: The Challenge of Nutrition Security", seeks to provide way forward for achieving nutrition security by 2030, with a particular focus on the Global South, especially Africa. These recommendations are informed by India's experiences in improving nutrition security and reducing mortality rates. By assessing India's progress in this area, we can identify critical factors that require focused interventions, fostering South-South learning to address this complex issue effectively. Our study finds that access to nutritious food alone cannot address the multi dimensional problem of undernutrition in these regions. They require targeted and multi-pronged strategies to accelerate nutrition security.
