Organiser's description

Food system transformation is required to achieve SDG 2 (end hunger and all forms of malnutrition) and 6 (clean water and sanitation for all). While traditionally siloed in academic and policy arenas, food and water are inextricably linked. Water creates an enabling environment for optimal nutrition and is an essential resource in all aspects of food production, transformation and preparation, including optimal sanitation and hygiene practices as well as for food intake and normal physiological function.
To identify needs and potential solutions, this session will share lessons from the ongoing Nutrition-sensitive Agriculture Water Productivity Project being implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) in Benin, Mozambique, Niger, Rwanda, Jordan and Egypt. The event will strengthen the links between the water, agriculture and nutrition communities.
