The 2nd day of the Nutrition Africa Investment Forum @ForumNutrition by @DSM, @GAINalliance & @AfricanBizMag with @SUNBizNet is underway! Truly there is the need for increased investment into nutrition!
75% of people in the world lives on 12 crops and 5 animals. Consumers need to be daring and bold on their diet preferences. @Myriam_Sidibe #NAIF
SDG1 and SDG2 are linked. There is no way to get to zero hunger and malnutrition if people are poor. @fokkowientjes #NAIF

RT @grazianodasilva: This year, World Food Day takes place in a critical moment for the fight against #hunger & #malnutrition. Hunger, #overweight & #obesity levels continue to increase. Taking action is not an option. #WFD2018: Our actions are our future

Fortified Blended Foods (FBFs) can play a huge role in ensuring good nutrition. But in West Africa, most FBFs are imported. Kudos to @GAINalliance and @WFP for investing in a local FBF project in Mali, Senegal, and Burkina Faso: bit.ly/2QHqSEp #investinnutrition

Think of what you ate today. How much of it did you produce yourself? Unless you’re a farmer, most of it was probably grown, processed, transported & sold by a company. To end malnutrition, businesses need to be part of the solution.
Great to have them at the table. @SUNBizNet
