- Description
- Diet-related poor health, climate change, environmental degradation, and growing social inequities require urgent global, aligned, systemic action. In 2021, COVID-19, climate change, and conflict are some of the biggest drivers of food insecurity, and recovery from COVID-19 impact creates an opportunity to change trajectories to ensure optimal human and planetary health for today’s children. Healthy diets are not only compatible with environmental objectives, but also necessary for attaining global climate and biodiversity goals. Actioned commitments to achieve healthy and sustainable diets for children can advance multiple global goals: human health, reduced social inequalities and climate and environmental stability.
