Karima Al-Had’a from SUN Secretariat in #Yemen “prevention isn’t just for health. It’s about integrated, multi sectoral programming with health, nutrition, agriculture. It’s about having nutrition as part of a wider development plan.”

Francesca Erdelmann from @wfp-de.bsky.social at #N4GParis “research is needed to evidence the integration of #ECD into nutrition programming in #humanitarian contexts. But this research needs to be done in those contexts, not in a lab.”
