Focus on linking agriculture and nutrition
|
No. 42
May 2015
|
|
|
|
|
|
For many years, agricultural development efforts have focused only on increasing agricultural productivity. The result has been little or no emphasis on dietary diversity – one of the key drivers of healthy nutrition. This is in large part a consequence of a lack of awareness of the importance of agriculture to nutrition and food security, and a lack of evidence to support this nexus.
Over the course of a ‘nutrition campaign’, CTA brings together a collection of blogs, interviews, articles, videos and many more resources that can help understanding and therefore strengthening the nexus between agriculture, food and nutrition. Find out more.
