Every single minute, the global hunger crisis pushes another child into severe malnutrition.
As @rachelhickman.bsky.social of @savechildrenuk.bsky.social says, we have the tools and knowledge to save lives.
We just need the political will to put it all to use. #WorldHungerDay

Ahead of #N4GParis, we joined 15 renowned chefs in signing a letter urging the UK Gov to prioritise high-impact solutions for tackling global malnutrition.
Today we handed the letter into 10 Downing Street. It’s time for action.

Interesting event organised by Results UK yesterday on immunisation & nutrition integration. Esther Nasikye gave a powerful speech on why integrated services matter for women, who still carry the burden of care & often travel far to access services “Every time we build siloed services we fail them.”

We are relieved that the Government of Israel & Hamas have finally reached agreement on a pause in hostilities.
This will protect children from bombs & bullets for as long as it holds but must be the turning point to secure a definitive ceasefire & to rapidly increase humanitarian aid to children.
