N4G side event: Rights-based policies for tackling malnutrition and advancing UHC

This December, all eyes will be on Tokyo and the 2021 Nutrition for Growth Summit. Join us on International Human Rights Day for a conversation about the right to good nutrition and progress in integrating nutrition into UHC plans with the N4G side event, "Rights-based policies for tackling malnutrition and advancing Universal Health Coverage (UHC): Aligning N4G commitments with progress." Whether you’re an advocate, parliamentarian, or civil servant, you can play a role in ensuring rights-based policies are enacted that will help tackle malnutrition and keep commitment-makers accountable for their N4G pledges.
