United Against Malnutrition & Hunger
@uamh.bsky.social
United Against Malnutrition & Hunger (UAMH) is an alliance pressing the UK Government and politicians of all parties for global action on malnutrition and hunger, which is the cause of 45% of deaths of children under 5.
📢Huge debts damage development & generations by making malnutrition much worse.

Our report Debt and Malnutrition: Ending the Doom Loop has practical solutions to break the link.
Here's our CEO @jonny_oates talking to @IanpayneLBC @LBC on launch day.

Launching today on uamh.uk!
Malnutrition traps 100s of millions in poverty. Surging debt repayments are making it much worse.
Debt and Malnutrition: Ending the Doom Loop exposes the problem & shows how debt can be transformed into a tool for growth. #DebtAndHunger

There is famine in Sudan, where food is being used as a weapon of war - an utterly desperate emergency highlighted by @AnnelieseDodds.

Blocking food aid is against International Humanitarian Law.

The UK must lead the way in upholding the law & advocate strongly for compliance.

Thank you @EdwardMorelloWD, for leading this debate on Planned Reductions in Official Development Assistance in International Development.
 
The timing of cuts is terrible. They come as global need is rising, and many millions of children are suffering unimaginably from hunger.

Well said @Lord_Collins Nutrition is foundational to the development of every human being’s body, brain & immunity. That makes nutrition foundational to economic development. To growth! To jobs! That’s why addressing malnutrition is required for real change.

As our CEO @jonny_oates said in #WorldFoodDay's Starvation as a Weapon of War Debate, hunger & conflict are locked in a deadly cycle. Conflict causes food insecurity.
Food insecurity causes instability. UK ODA investment in nutrition can help break this cycle #FoodSecurity

Thank you @lynbrownmp for tabling this important #WorldFoodDay debate. 

Starvation is being used as a weapon of war. Children are innocent victims of this outrage & suffer terribly. 

Malnutrition is the biggest killer of under 5s.  International Humanitarian Law must be upheld.

Thank you to all the nutrition champions at the party conferences.
 
Malnutrition is preventable & treatable. Yet it kills more than 2 million under 5s a year.
 
We need political commitment to stop this tragedy.
 
A hungry world isn't healthy or secure.

He should know.
 
As Former Head of the Army & top strategist, Lord Dannatt says, Defence, Diplomacy & Development are the 3 cores of UK influence around the world.
 
Governments have cut ODA. Conflict reflects that.
 
Nutrition is foundational to development.
